Short story - slang

Something that could have been told in a more concise way but is dragged out because the teller doesn't know how to tell a story. It's a play on the annoying clarifier, "Long story short," people use to sum up a digression, which really never seems to be that short anyway. So instead you say the opposite.

So I was walking into the store the other day, I wanted to get some aspirin because I had this massive headache and I walked down aisle four but they only had Tylenol but that doesn't work and I went to the counter and short story long this guy was holding up the store!

Short story

A story thats supposed to be readable in one sitting. Therefore, short stories usually are less than 50 pages. The 'shortest' short story is "For sale: Baby shoes, never worn". Its a okay short story, as in those six words, you can sense a tragedy, like the baby died, or the mother had a miscarriage. That shows it can be considered a short story, as you got a sense of something from those 6 words.

Mike: I just finished my short story, its 3 pages long.
Liam: Good, as long as it shows a good story, its fine.
