Six words

[genk]

So, stealing this (http://wired.com/wired/archive/14.11/sixwords.html) idea, MAKE A SIX WORD SHORT STORY

ppp-please?

Example in chat format:
<Ford|Sn33py> There was a boy. The end.
<genki> Woah, communists killed people. what jerks.

[mb]

Met a man from Nantucket once.

Closed. Please return home at once.

[genk]

Genk posts ISB thread, holy crap.

[mb]

MB contributes without Gebohq demanding it.

[JediKirby]

In life, one may make mistakes.

Girl left, Emo cried a lot.

SFGold left massassi. All rejoiced.

[genk]

Live on my littlest red starship

[Sarn_Cadrill]

Darkness fell, and all was quiet.

Honey, I swear that's not lipstick.

That clip is missing one bullet.

[genk]

six word stories don't do well

[Gebohq]

I am not waiting for you.

[genk]

geb put this in his sig

genki danced the happiest dance ever

he was then shot down outside

but did he die? OH NOES

(it [-]is[/-] was a trilogy, geb wanted a recon)

[The MAZZTer]

Rare post in ISB by me.

[Sarn_Cadrill]

(it [-]is[/-] was a trilogy, geb wanted a recon)
pfft. that's cheating. :p

[genk]

Alas, poor Yorik, I knew him.

The moral of the story: ****.

[Semievil333]

(it [-]is[/-] was a trilogy, geb wanted a recon)

" 'twas a trilogy, geb wanted recon"?

[happydud]

I killed a hooker last night.

Missed the sign, bridge was unfinished.

[roxima]

They danced a happy dance. Fin.

[Hell Raiser]

I went and had a beer

I felt it was not enough

So I had eleven more beers

Six word short stories are hard

The, longest the end ever, end.

(Bored I am so good day!)

[genk]

we came, we saw, we destroyed.

Lesbians. Lesbians? LESBIANS?! Lesbians. Oh, lesbians.

[Greenboy]

Got up. Went places. Did stuff.

Now to clarify!

Woke up. Went sailing around.... Yay?

[Tracer]

Congratulations on starting this wicked story.

[genk]

you might make a dollar. NOT

[mb]

Need sleep before week 10 starts

[herb]

"Apologies," they said, quite obviously shaken.

[genk]

this thread was dead, LIVE AGAIN.


Emoticon stories!

:gbk: :ninja: :v: :argh: :psyduck: :gbk:

[Sarn_Cadrill]

(I got "Brian stole pacman. Angry psyduck, Brian.")

[genk]

that may be GBK, just maybe

[mb]

Just finished packing, music time now.

[Gebohq]

I bet you can't do it.

[mb]

I most definitely can do it

[Vegiemaster]

"Finished," he exclaimed. Word count: six.

[Gebohq]

Oh God, what have I done?

[Gebohq]

(Somone should make this as a massassi logo)

ISB's "Six Words" says: Happy Holidays!

[Ric_Olie]

Buffalo buffalo buffalo Buffalo buffalo, right?

[Tibby]

I am named joe, Awesome man!

[tinny]

This is my first time here!

[genk]

holy ****! thread is not dead!

[The MAZZTer]

I'm posting in an ISB thread!

[mb]

This is the Interactive story board.


I woke up and fell over.

I once kicked happydud nine times.

I am an old thread reviver.

[Ric_Olie]

Necromice heed thy master. Attack them.

[Majiir]

Behold me in my mystic opulence!

[Gebohq]

He was the most gullible cynic.

[genk]

All new episodes in the Acropolis

[Gebohq]

*BLAM*-*BLAM*-*clickclickclick*...*click*

[Alice Shade]

Game over. Load autosave - yes/no?

Lantern, Jack and knife. All together.

Does Pope wear a funny hat?

Instant coffee. Bleugh. Morning hell cometh.

[Rob]

Sometimes it stings when I pee.

[happydud]

Emo violence emo violence emo violence!

MB kicked dud; Dud ate him.

I am hungry, off to eat!

[Gebohq]

Damnit! I am not in denial!

Can I change before I succeed?

[Gebohq]

Is this a game or what?

( I am typing from my Wii! )

[Gebohq]

Without, waiting, whole: crosses of self.

Do I have to make sense?

[Rob]

He who laughs last, laughs last.

So I hit her in the face.

It was time for double screwdrivers.

[Sats]

You might as well just shoot.

[Rob]

I shot her, and her friend.


I grinned as she was burried.


Alive I am, Dead you are.

[Phantom-Seraph]

"Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious" The witch nanny spat joyfully.

[Michael MacFarlane]

I survived in the alternate ending.

[Gebohq]

(I wonder if that last one was in reference to NeS...)

:eng101: :hist101: :gonk: and then death.

[DEFINOTELY NOT SPE]

She had an Adams apple, *sobs*.

[Michael MacFarlane]

(I wonder if that last one was in reference to NeS...)

(Wasn't thinking about that, but it fits nicely.)

Where have all the mountains gone?

[Gebohq]

"That's what she said! Oh, wait..."

[genk]

nothing new since april, THREAD NECROMANCY

[DEFINOTELY NOT SPE]

God dammit Genki, you're real immature.

[genk]

spe, you're a commie, go away.

[DEFINOTELY NOT SPE]

Stop trolling me, troll SAJN instead.

[genk]

you would like that, wouldn't you?

[DEFINOTELY NOT SPE]

I honestly believe everyone likes that.

[genk]

I know i do, frawr, baby

[NoESC]

I raped genk. He was tight.

[DEFINOTELY NOT SPE]

Thats sad news, Genk won't be happy.

[genk]

Thats sad news, Genk won't be happy.

News Flash! SPE BANNED, SEVEN WORDS

[NoESC]

does it hurt the second time?

[Gebohq]

"And then God died -- how trite."

[The Last True Evil]

I hate these stupid word restrictions.

[Lord_Grismath]

We seek meaning in impaired simplicity.

[Darth_Alran]

force s***s on reasons back. truth!

[Darth_Alran]

We seek meaning in impaired simplicity.

impaired simplicity seeks meaning in you.

[Sarn_Cadrill]

I watched her while she died.

[Gebohq]

A complete thought is only good--

Continue the following story: "The End."

[Michael MacFarlane]

A story in six words? Impossible!

[Sarn_Cadrill]

MacFarlane completing a coherent sentence? Impossible.



LOLZ!!!

[Gebohq]

One, two, three, four, five...seven?

[The Last True Evil]

Ironically, Sarn's post contained seven words.

[Roach]

What is that over there? Oh.

[Gebohq]

[-]Laura May[/-]
[-]John May[/-]
Sussanah May

(My attempt at using formatting to help tell the story.)

[Voodoosnowflake]

Swish Swish! CLANG! Swing. Whack! Ahhhhh!

[Sarn_Cadrill]

[THE LOLZ was NOT PART OF THE STORY, N3wb.]

[Gebohq]

What makes a good cliffhanger is--

Wakka-wakka--OH BOY! POWER PILL! :awesome:

[The Last True Evil]

Die!

Click.

Click.

Let's be friends.

[Blood Asp]

A transvestite? Wait, pre-op or post-op?

[Gebohq]

Why is the sky bleeding blue?

[Gebohq]

Uh oh... the ISB is breaking...

[genk]

This Thread
Six words
Not Eight

[genk]

That post
was fun
don't worry

[Gebohq]

Are we just carrying conversations now?

[Gebohq]

From ISB's "Six Words" -- Happy Holidays!

"One...two...two and a half..."

I can not do with six words.

[genk]

oh crap oh crap oh crap!

[Sarn_Cadrill]

I think that genk is constipated.

[Gebohq]

Story shmory, I've used six words!

Life is a linear roller coaster.

[genk]

hey ho, santa can't no mo

[Gebohq]

I'll drink until I get sober.

[Gebohq]

Will this thread see more posts?

Only time will tell its fate...

[Jay]

Gebohq knows necromancy, per his demonstration.

Demon, get it? Yeah, I know.

[Gebohq]

The genius apologized to his creation.

[Gebohq]

The vagueness made the pointless pointed.

[Gebohq]

"It was this big," he wept.

[Gebohq]

"What's he got that I don't?"

[Darth_Alran]

i need some more briny stimulus!

[Gebohq]

Genk should post more often here.

Can any six words be story-worthy?

It pushed, broke, and kept pushing.

[happydud]

Something else pushed, something else broke.

[Gebohq]

We need more posts, God dammit!

[Lord_Grismath]

Newspeak would let us say more...

[genk]

My thread! It still lives! Yay!

[Gebohq]

That's what you'd like to think.

[Gebohq]

Birth, life, death -- the human conditioned.

[ECHOMAN]

Rise, rise from the grave thread.

[Vin]

It was midnight in the graveyard

[Vin]

and somewhere beneath the ground, the

[Gebohq]

"And in five, four, three...****"

[genk]

After five months, here, a post.

[Gebohq]

Not even five days, another post!

[Gebohq]

"He is, she is... same difference."

[Petmc.]

Three letters in the number six.

[Gebohq]

"Math is hard! Let's go shopping!"

[Gebohq]

He proposed. She promised. They parted.

(My attempt to do a more "traditional" story in 6 words. I'm curious, out of all the attempts made so far, if any of them actually feel like good stories or not to people.)

[Gebohq]

"One story to fool them all..."

(I might have to use some of these lines in larger stories...)

[Gebohq]

A few sloths slit velor safes.

((This is what happens when I try using spell checker on random keyboard mashing, though it still took a few tries. Yeah...))

[Gebohq]

He saw. He came. She sighed.

[Koobie]

Nuts, thought the squirrel. Aren't we?

[Gebohq]

"Let's just be friends."

You concede.

[Gebohq]

I boxed a kangeroo. It cheated.

[Gebohq]

Open. Rise. Twist. Peak. Resolve. Repeat.

(The life of a story, until it misses a step!)

[Gebohq]

Am I the only one here?

(It's a meta-fictional mystery! :ninja: ... )

[Gebohq]

(noun) (verb). (noun) (verb). (noun) (verb).

Make your own six word story!

Mad Libs is super awesome fun!

[Liberius Vir]

You are not the only one

[Gebohq]

Six words make the modern narrative.

[Liberius Vir]

Only if it's a foreign film.

(I am sorry. Do contractions count?)

[Gebohq]

(No, contractions work. Don't be sorry.)

How many six word stories exist?

[Liberius Vir]

Not too many by my count.

[Liberius Vir]

Apparently, I'm The Death of Threads.

[Estelore]

What do you know? I'm real.

Cheesecake factory exploded, survivor lactose intolerant.

Yellow snow is gross... brown worse.

[Liberius Vir]

ISB spammed. Laugh at the activity.

[Alan]

I don't ever post in here.

I'm serious; this is my first.

I should go for the gusto.

In before it gets too silly.

Oh god I have to try.

Is it becoming obvious enough yet?

[Liberius Vir]

Waits for more people to post...

[Gebohq]

You might be waiting a while...

[Liberius Vir]

Oh, come on. You just posted.

[Gebohq]

I don't count. I'm the moderator.

Can six words ruin a story?

What was, is, but what if...

[FastGamerr]

..the truth of the destruction of..

[Al Ciao]

May the Force be with you.

Where no man has gone before.

The beginning, the middle, the end.

"You missed." "Two words: Boomerang. Arrow."

It's the truth and nothing but.

Geb endorses Nickelback, their sales plummet.

More people should write for NeS!

To be or not to be.

Romeo, Romeo, wherefore art thou Romeo?

Republicans hate size of Obama's package.

[Liberius Vir]

I think I need more coffee.

Also, I wrote a bunch today.

It made me kind of tired.

I'll go and lay down now.

Good night Interactive Story Board readers!

I love all six of you!

[Al Ciao]

Six readers? I think there's only five.

Apparently one of us cannot count.

Neither can Geb, did you know?

And Losien blames herself, as always.

For a main character, she's insecure.

True of all main characters, perhaps?

Well, except for the Mary Sues.

[Gebohq]

Bored. Bored bored bored bored bored.

[Liberius Vir]

Then why don't you do something?

[Gebohq]

Because that would involve some effort.

[Gebohq]

Blah blah, blah blah blah blah.

(Ok, so maybe I'm running out of six word stories.)

[Liberius Vir]

Maybe not. I'll post something soon.

[Al Ciao]

Thank goodness. I'm breathless with anticipation!

You better be talking about NeS...

[Liberius Vir]

Maybe I am... maybe I'm not...


;) lol

[Gebohq]

When truth...
...stretches, so...
...do you.

[Liberius Vir]

I really am working on something.

It's just taking a long time.

So cut me some slack, boss.

[Gebohq]

"Ain't your boss," the boss said.

[Al Ciao]

He was talking to ME, Geb.

You WERE, were you not, Lib?

You better have been, or else!

;)

[need help]

Last thing heard: "Pull the plug!"

He met her on his wedding!

[Liberius Vir]

We cannot let this thread die!

It is just too much fun!

Quick, someone post something really funny!

[Al Ciao]

Funny? Okay, look at my face.

[Gebohq]

host

boss



stranger

lover



daughter

hostess




Just another attempt to try something different with telling the story via formatting.

[Al Ciao]

:nonono:
That last sentence wasn't six words!

You heretic! I curse your pinky!

It will shrivel up and wither!

Look at all my exclamation marks!!!!!!

[Gebohq]

Six words, sex wards... same difference.

[genk]

Oh ****, where's my pants at?

[genk]

It's Geb's birthday, lets eat cake!

[Gebohq]

"Mmm...tasty," said the cake eater.

[Al Ciao]

FYI: The cake is a lie.

[Koobie]

The same goes for genki's pants.

[Al Ciao]

Cliche Portal references for the win!

[Gebohq]

Everything was true, especially the lies.

(I am shamelessly ripping from DS9.)

[Al Ciao]

Live long and prosper, Vulcans say.

(Shamelessly ripping Star Trek? Me too!)

[Gebohq]

Some infamous quotes from a co-worker:

"It's extremely rare to be me."

"I want to go into myself."

[and what don't slugs like?] "Mazes?"

"What am I, a ginger cookie?"

"Cookies and kids are the same."

"There you go -- root beer pudding."

[Al Ciao]

I wanna hear Geb's infamous quotes!

You know, stuff that he says.

Still, that random co-worker is wacky.

But Geb is even more so!

Isn't it great resurrecting old threads?

...Is giving dead threads love necrophilia?

[Gebohq]

C Y R U N X.

An experiment in single-letter 'words' - if only it ended up spelling out a word that was obviously tied into the same story.

[Liberius Vir]

I'm back! Are you not happy?
