Very practical. I'm sure it revives memories of yesteryear, not only for you , but for me too. I also think that the artwork is great. Ollie

This is hilarious!! (And very sad - in a funny way.)

I love this entry! The artwork is fun and the six-words are witty.

Great job, Mortman. LOL Sorry about the garlic and mono part. Hee hee.

Ooh, ok, That was pretty gross.

However, it did qualify as a six word story. The sequence is a bit nauseating.

It was good, but that's all I can say. - Thesis

    Well, that was the reaction I was hoping for, plus I did hope people might find it a little bit amusing. I am guessing that you did not, based on your rating, but each to his own. Cheers, MM.

mortman, I enjoyed reading your six word story. It tells a whole story but one that leaves much room for the imagination to play...who are these kissers? How old? Garlic?...where was big sister or brother to warn them...or was the kiss totally unanticipated? And mono...who had it? who got it? How will I fill in the rest of the story so it satisfies me?

Fun stuff to play with. Nice job.

    OK, now that I don't have the restraints of six words: I took a family friend to the formal (Aussie equivalent of prom) who I'd been keen on for some time. I wasn't expecting much so was understandably thrilled to get a first kiss. Less thrilling was the taste which also included cheap wine and something akin to thick glue. As for the mono, I was the recipient and amongst other symptoms, I had the sorest throat I've ever had in my life! You have to be careful what you wish for.

    Thanks bozroz, glad you liked it. I wanted to include the taste of cheap wine, but didn't have enough words.
