A long-winded title
Only rule: the title itself must be longer than the actual writing. [If Prose still forces the 15-word minimum, you can bold the title and make it part of the body of the text, or place a bracketed nonsense filibuster at the bottom.]

How to...

“How to impress people you don’t know and don’t care about, but whose feedback may bolster your own self-image and raise you up in the eyes of others, who you also may not really care about, but whose validation, for some strange reason, you continue to seek, though it is worthless and meaningless.”

Lie.

An Expression of the Human Condition Of Struggle and Suffering in the Pursuit of Goals That May or May Not be Completely Devoid of any Meani

An Expression of the Human Condition Of Struggle and Suffering in the Pursuit of Goals That May or May Not be Completely Devoid of any Meaning or Value other than the Pompous Lies we Tell Ourselves to Further our Pursuit of such Frivolous and Useless Things Through which we Might View the Grand Irony of Humans Thinking they rule the World that they will Leave Short Years After they Enter it, Having Left Little or Nothing in the way of Legacy or Meaning, as well as the Grand Beauty of that Irony Through which we Might Appreciate the Fact that the Greatest act we can Partake in is Laughing at the Grand Stupidity of Existence Which Perhaps the Elegant and Concise title of this Grand Piece of Literature Shows

"Ow!"

They danced to the beat of the drums, their feet moved so fast that the ground started to quiver~ many voices cried out, they even started to sing along to the drums and shake their rattles- then the minute a sound of thunder rumbling was heard by each one of them, they all froze and stared at the lad who had rained on their parade.

The second the lad blinked— all the people he had seen vanished.

I was 5 and I remember a little boy giving me a flower and I was wearing a yellow dress, I think I got it at target and I got it with these

He gave me a flower, a dandelion. It was wilting and I didn't really like it.

I accidentally wrote the entire email in the subject line and nobody told me, now everyone in the office judges my terrible emailing skills

At least I don't send chain emails, except for that one time in the 4th grade...
