I've only seen the WBs that you or a couple other people insert into their LJs, and I've liked some, but a few have been pretty "???"
The one that really got me was the 6 word story one. I saw 2 or three of those, but I didn't think they were really capturing the essence. They could technically be stories, sure, but it was more like "hey, remember that time when...?" as opposed to the baby shoes' mystery. WHY were they for sale? WHY were they never worn? WHO were they for? and a few other questions. The reader's immagination fills in these answers and that's how the story comes to be with the 6 word story. ALl the ones I read weren't leaving things up to the imagination, but telling us the whole thing. And that just bugged me >_>

Incidently, I agree, stupid question.
