Friday Funny: One Sentence

If you believe brevity is the soul of wit then this site is for you. I thought the concept here was excellent, and the implementation both impressive and entertaining. The site is called onesentence.org, and the conceit is simple…so simple in fact that simplicity is its entire raison d’etre. The site is a series of entire stories, all of them complete in their own way, most of them somehow informative, many of them quite interesting…all told in a single sentence.

Let me pull a few for your reading enjoyment:

My mental illness drove me to seek help, but his mental illness drove him to molest his patients.

She tried to touch my lips as I sat stoned on the kitchen floor, but I kissed her hair instead, and left her for the cooler.

She was my favorite cousin and my best friend, but that didn’t stop her from screwing my fiance then marrying him.

As you can see….sometimes odd, sometimes tragic, often funny. And you can go over to the site and submit your own. I can thnk of fewer things mre fun on a late Friday. OK, I can think of a lot of more fun things, but still, pretty cool.
