A person in six words

Posted by Line Larsen on October 7, 2008

I assume most have heard of six word stories. Ernest Hemingway wrote one, which is heartbreaking. It goes: “For sale: baby shoes, never worn.” My suggestions along the same lines are: “Still setting a table for two.” or “The man married, and later died.”

And then I thought: What is more complex than a story? A personality. Can you describe yourself in a six word sentence? I made an attempt.

“Not normal, but close to average.”
