twicebaked What is the saddest/creepiest story you can think of in six words? Google is off-limits, Thesaurus is not << I don't really know why you would need Thesaurus, but 🤷 just in case.

The challenge originated with a myth about Ernest Hemingway penning the shortest, saddest story (only 6 words long): "For sale. Baby shoes. Never worn." Who knows if it's true, but it would be fun to see if we/I/you can come up with one/a thousand!

EDIT: I found a word counter that was really helpful - https://easywordcount.com/
and some prompters if you're not sure what to do ;) - https://the-line-up.com/short-scary-s...
