Authors in search of six words

[captainsblog]

Morning coolness from the world of Wired (thanks to blacktigr for posting it): inspired by Hemingway once writing an entire short story in six words ("For sale: baby shoes, never worn."),  thirty-odd actual sci-fi authors were asked to do their best. Or at least their shortest.  Some of my favorites:

Computer, did we bring batteries? Computer?
- Eileen Gunn

Gown removed carelessly. Head, less so.
- Joss Whedon

It’s behind you! Hurry before it
- Rockne S. O’Bannon

I’m your future, child. Don’t cry.
- Stephen Baxter

I’m dead. I’ve missed you. Kiss … ?
- Neil Gaiman

The baby’s blood type? Human, mostly.
- Orson Scott Card

The only problem with this concept is, by going to the actual authors, the potential for real parody is cut way down. But we can fix that:

"Captain! We've discovered a new alien!"
-Rick Berman or Brannon Braga

Khan put....doggerel.... een my storeez!
-Walter Koenig

Four elephants shit profusely. Five, moreso.
-Terry Pratchett

Ziggy offline, Sam leaps into bric-a-brac.
-Donald P. Bellisario, after checking with his wife to be sure "bric-a-brac" is just one word

Three! Sixteen! Nineteen! Twenty-six! Forty-one! Ninety-four!
-J.J. Abrams, realizing the infinite possibility for sequels in this format

Anthony wished Livia into the cornfield.
-David Chase's contribution to the new Twilight Zone anthology series

"I need more weapons, Madame President!"
-A certain 2047 scriptwriter who shall remain nameless

"Tori's pregnant? This'll just kill Lucas."
-Another certain 2047 scriptwriter who shall remain nameless

"You idiots! Subduction weapons don't W...."
-Yet another certain 2047 scriptwriter who shall remain nameless
