It said a sad story, not a fucking nightmare. There might be kids reading this, don't scare them!

I love to say this sassily and where it doesn't fit just because "guh noo" sounds funny

He didn't make an evaluation of someone's personal feelings. MAGA heads might not feel sad, but it's still a sad life from outside perspective.

Yes, it's an abridgement of the most mundane 6 word story:

For sale: baby shoes, too small.

Not sure if you're just doing the prompt or really asking, but I've never heard the 6 word story given a name, so I'm not sure

But how is this a sad story? Babies grow so fast that they easily can skip a size... Am I missing the point?

And, wouldn't this be the real sad story? "For sale, baby shoes, too big"

Implying that the baby died before it could grow into said shoes?

Am I missing the point?

Yes, a little. The original was: For sale, baby shoes, never worn.

It's decidedly not sad -- I specifically said it was the most mundane 6 word story.

This isn't 3 words, but I know players of Elden Ring would suggest that you:

I wonder which of these answers in the thread give genuine locations on what 3 words...

The kid outgrew it? I guess that's still kind of sad in a "Butterfly Kisses" kinda way.

In the melody of It's Raining Men it sounds awesome.

"Toilet water rising.

The streets will overflow."

The only time in my entire history of dating where I got invited into her house, I took a shit in the toilet and clogged it so hard it overflowed when I flushed.

There was a really cool story, but it had to be cut down so it could fit in the 3 word limit.

Hi hi

We're your plumber girls (uh huh)

And have we got news for you (you better listen!)

Get ready all you plumbing girls

And leave that poop knife at home!

Toilet water rising

Confidence getting low (how low girl?)

According to my estimate

This shit's gonna overflow
