World's Shortest Fairytale

[lenslover2003]

I'm not sure if this has been told here before,but it's worth repeating.I got it from a friend of mine. Both of our wives hated it.


There once was a man who asked a woman to marry him. The woman said " NO !" So the man hunted and fished a lot,burped and farted when he needed to,drank beer with his buddies,and lived happily everafter.

The End.

I think they're called "Norwegian Bachelor Farmers" on "A Prairie Home Companion."

This topic reminds of a story...

This really short story was written by Hemmingway. He actually won a literature prize for it. It goes like this: "For Sale. Baby shoes. Never worn".
