Some Favorites from Reddit’s Six-Word Stories Subreddit

Inspired by Ernest Hemingway’s powerful work— “For sale: baby shoes, never worn.”, Redditors write and submit six-word stories. A few that intrigued, amused, or impressed me: 

  • The executioner’s mother caught every performance.
  • The second mouse got the cheese.
  • Loving life is just Stockholm Syndrome.
  • It was a horrible shaving accident.
  • Held my peace at the wedding.
  • Epitaph: “They’re hidden under the basement.”
  • Grab chocolate chip cookie, damn raisins.
  • I’ve burned every bridge I’ve crossed.
  • Inside the sun’s core. Warm. Bored.
