We'll be brief: Hemingway once wrote a story in just six words ("For sale: baby shoes, never worn.") and is said to have called it his best work. So we asked sci-fi, fantasy, and horror writers from the realms of books, TV, movies, and games to take a shot themselves. --Continued HERE
So I'm collecting responses. Here are a few off the top of my head.
What're yours?Bought bagpipes. There goes the neighbourhood.
So now we nail everything down.
Born cross-eyed to four parents.
Feared old age; died young instead.
Infant to adult, no middle man.
Messy child becomes dirty old man.
Well water tastes funny. Where's Timmy?
Irishman spotted. London walks to work.
Greedy undertaker. Charon goes without lunch.
God ruled a hoax. Repenters relapse.
Raphael lied. Dead babies can't fly.
At closing time everyone looked good. D:

I don't think you see the places
inside me that I find you
I tried to get my English class to do this after studying Hemingway. But Mrs. Snyder wouldn't let me. I can't think of any off of the top of my head. I usually have a million though. I'll keep you posted.
And I don't know how we
separate the lies from the truth

-More porn, sore d**k, sore mind.
-This story has no end yet!
-What does that dog want now?
First one was just dumb. The middle one I like as it gives some degree of ambiguity. The last one was just nonsense.

Klein bottle for rent - inquire within. (Not by me, physicist's graffiti)
Pando dies. 80 000 years... for what?
Head hits floor. Knocked out again.
Topologist inverts self. Damn sign errors.
Perfect sunset. Me without a camera.
Never said I was a surgeon...
No shade in memory of trees.
One word sends me into oblivion.
