Let’s Play A Game…

March 22nd, 2010

I’m bored.  I’ve already voted, and now there’s really not much going on other than waiting.  I want to see the action of results day, and I don’t have the patience to actually do schoolwork while I wait.  The thing is, given that you’re here, I know I’m not alone.  So let’s play a game.

For those of you who have heard of Six Word Stories, you’ll know this idea isn’t a new one.  Come up with the best statement of exactly six words that you can to sum up a part of the election. It can be the election as a whole, a description of one of the candidates, a story about something that happened… anything goes.

For example: Nothing can stop the Debogorski machine.

Don’t be shy to post multiple ideas (though if you are shy, just change your username, God knows enough people are doing it already).  The best six word story, to quote Peter Stoffer, will win “an allegedly fabulous prize”.

I know you guys are creative.  Let’s see what you’ve got.

  12. What’s a good six word name?
    March 23rd, 2010 at 08:47 | #12

    Can you guess who these are?

    White shirt looks like disembodied head.

    “Overdrank last night” voice? That’s normal.

    Some real conversation for your ass.

    What happened to last year’s kittens?

    Good ideas, bad at walking backwards.

    Volunteer firefighter! Owns business! Guess who?!

    Fire-juggling, rainbow-coloured engineer? WTF?

    Who is this Dempsey guy, anyway?

    This field mouse has claws, motherfuckers.

    Hot chick wins Senate race handily.

    This election is boring. *changes channel*

    Recycle or she’ll kick your ass.

    Lounge lizards are silly critics! Pfft!

    Joining my love of the art of haiku with Six Word Stories:

    “Christopher Saulnier.
    Presidential awesomeness.
    Sexton, represent!”

    @haikulover
    This one is my favourite by far! (I also love haiku.)

    And no, that wasn’t a six word whatever. Sorry.
