Re: Extremely Short Stories for those of you with Extremely Short Attention Spans

Grandma loved to cook for her large extended family. Large pans filled with ham, roast beef and potatoes filled the small house with delicious aromas. Emil ate and ate and ate. He choked and died.

The end

Re: Extremely Short Stories for those of you with Extremely Short Attention Spans

Betsy and Gill were at the supermarket for their weekly shopping trip. This was like a date for them. They had a few minutes to talk with each other without the children interrupting.

Gill asks, "Do we need more laundry detergent?"

Betsy answers, "I think we have enough to last till next week."

Gill says, "Why don't we pick some up anyway? It's not like the world is going to end and we aren't going to use it."

Later that evening, the world ended and Betsy and Gill were stuck with laundry detergent they will never ever use.
