After several minutes of consideration, I deduced that people would not hate me for creating this thread. I thought it might be an interesting topic to probe the creative minds here.
My English teacher (who makes me not hate English nearly as fervently as I had previously) assigned us a story to be written in 55 words. No more. No less. Mine had to do with (guess...) skiing. There were others from some more "normal" people about horse races and school lectures, and the stupidity of our Citrix system at school, etc. etc. etc. So I want you guys to do the same: say what you can in 55 words. I'll bet I'll hear some extremely unexpected, random, deranged, etc., but most of all humorous responses...
Here is mine, if anyone cares:
It was waist deep. Deeper in the trees. And cold. So cold. Every turn was a refreshing plunge into the frozen abyss. I mached rhythmic turns off the Cirque, loving every minute of it. These days are not many. I welcomed choking for breath between each pummeling by the 10-degree white fluff. I love Altabird.
Edited because 1) I wanted to reduce ambiguousity about choking and 2) I like it better.
