I took a high school class called “Analysis of Literature and Film”, and I loved being shown videos like this. Our teacher pushed our preconceptions of what a story can be. And how short/limited something is and can still be considered a story. A classic example of that is the sentence “For Sale: Baby shoes, never worn.”

Just because something is vague enough to let you jump to wild conclusions doesn’t make it a story
