But how is this a sad story? Babies grow so fast that they easily can skip a size… Am I missing the point?
And, wouldn’t this be the real sad story? “For sale, baby shoes, too big”
Implying that the baby died before it could grow into said shoes?

For sale: baby shoes, too small.

Yes, a little. The original was: For sale, baby shoes, never worn.
It’s decidedly not sad – I specifically said it was the most mundane 6 word story.

Not sure if you’re just doing the prompt or really asking, but I’ve never heard the 6 word story given a name, so I’m not sure
