The Bloggers With The Most To Say
What's your six-word memoir?
I know there have been a few Forum discussions with this already, but I thought I'd do one for this year :)
Go here and here to read more about six-word memoirs--and see some awesome examples!--but it's basically summing up your life or a facet of your life in six words, and six words only. Chuck Klosterman's was "Nobody cared, then they did. Why?"; Amy Sedaris' was "Mushrooms. Clowns. Wands. Five. Wig. Thatched."; Stephen Colbert's was "Well, I thought it was funny."
I had to do it in a journalism workshop during college, and the two I wrote were:
- I am a journalist; trust me.
- Lived in six countries. Where's home?
So, what's yours?

LOL!! Your six word life story is the Contra Code? Too bad you couldn't fit "selectstart" in there at the end!

Yeah man! Mostly because sometimes I feel like life is so hard I wish I could have 30 extra tries.

I like your; 'Lived in six countries. Where's home?' That's pretty brilliant.
Mine would be... He came, he saw, he yawned.

As good as it gets? Probably.
