Friday evening, Roger Ebert started a trend on Twitter— #6wordstory. People started tweeting stories in six words; mostly lame, mostly not even stories.

Here are the ones I contributed. I’m quite proud of a couple (guess or click on the ? to find out which story I’m summarizing):

Veni vidi vici. Et tu, Brutus? ?

Yudhishthira rolled the dice. Everyone lost. ?

Billy Pilgrim became unstuck in time. ?

This one really isn’t a story:
6? That’s not enough to finish…

And this one isn’t original:
Pinch of salt rocked an empire.

Any contributions?
