    Does it have to be in the same format? If so:

    For sale: Twelve condoms, never used.

    or

    On a marble gravestone: NO DOGS.

    That is actually my favourite, I think it's better then Hemingway's. I spent most my teen years with out of date condoms.



    Teenager pockets full of expired condoms.

    I was reading some weekend magazine the other day out of sheer boredom and stumbled upon this little nugget. Apparently, famous author Ernest Hemmingway was challenged by some peers to write a short story that was both compelling and logical but could only contain six words. No more, no less. He left this as his piece.

    For Sale: Baby shoes, never worn.

    I think it's quite amazing personally! Can you rival it? Give it a go and let's see do we get anything really good?


    The modern alternative:

    Lying bastard, smelly shoes, bloody Internet. :cool::rolleyes::p;):confused::D
