Joanne had already inserted her card in the ATM when she realised that the keypad had been liberally thrown up on.

And other catchy one-line stories here.

Some are funny, some are quite disturbing, and some are just downright tragic:
I held my father's hand as he died in that hospital room and realized I'd never held his hand before that moment.

I'm quite fond of this one:

One-time I got in trouble in Religious studies for saying the word "vagina," but talked my way out of it by convincing them I had said "Virgin Mary".

Sounds like something out of my own life. But I didn't talk my way out of it quite so effectively. Those nuns were *always* punishing me, often by requiring that I kneel repeatedly on a row of pencils.

I got in trouble in 3rd grade for blurting out in church "What's a VIRGIN?" to the teacher.

A call to my parents was made and I was lectured on it at home.

All because there was a cheezy felt banner hanging in the church that said "Hail unto a Virgin, a child is born".
