There ya go!

It's well written, hysterical, well rhymed and metered...

Besides?

"Some jerk cut right in front of her while on an evening drive,
She couldn't give a six, but wouldn't dare give less than five."

THAT alone is worth a sixer from me!

Great title, too!

This was well written and very funny! You don"t have to be in deep thought to get sixes! Yours deserves it! I love when you relate sixes to perfect tens! It is awesome and hilarious! Great job!

I like sixes too, they are pretty and shiny. But I actually want to earn them. Novel, I know. I don't have gobs of money to promote my work. I have to read until my eyeballs cross to promote. The whole system sucks eggs. You write well however. :-)

    Thank you, Karen. I appreciate the review. This wasn't a serious request for sixes; it was just an attempt at humor based on the contest prompt. Believe it or not, I would also prefer to earn those pretty, shiny sixes.

Hahaha, Jess! Okay, I don't dare give you a SIX. So, I'll say this so deserves one!

This satirical piece was fun to read; one felt the perplexities of all you gave a six to in your daily travels. Super funny!

Best, JohnC

a fun slice of life poem about life's misadventures along the way. It is almost a Seinfeldian poem about nothing, just noting life as it happens to us all.

Loved this one Jessica, about the giving of sixes. I loved how you gave them out in everyday life leaving many bemused. Very clever writing, and no I don't have a six left. LOL Still chuckling, and good luck in the contest.

I applied the six right off and then went on to get proof of the reward. The six suffers a bit in our world of TEN out here, but people here know what it means. Nice work.

Hi Jessica,
This IS funny. It shows how carried away someone can get and forget that the world's rating scale perfection is a ten not a 6. I hope Jennica realized here mistake and at dinner apologized to her husband and daughter and explained the to her six meant exceptional.
Keep writing and stay healthy
Good luck in the contest.
Enjoy the rest of the day and week,
Joan

LoL ! Enjoyed your humorous entry for this six contest. You're right that Fanstory has changed our vocabulary and how we view a six! And it's also stressful as a reviewer when we only have six sizes to award. Best wishes in the contest!
