Talk:Global Boring

From Pee Review[edit source]
I wrote this article when I was barely awake and the result is rather weird. It's been marked as needing fixing, and now that I'm fully conscious I can see that it is a kind of lame idea. Can anything humorous be salvaged from this mess? The typos have all been fixed, anyway, but the article itself...I don't know. I need opinions!!!!!
| Humour: | 4 | Sorry to not have anything specific to say, but it just doesn't always click for me... je ne sais quois. But don't give up yet, because... |
| Concept: | 8 | ...this one has potential. You could add parallel statistics, such as suicide rate, and the oft-touted pirate-to-global-warming rate. It's a little weighed down by... |
| Prose and formatting: | 3 | ...the format, which subscribes to the "big-block-o'-prose" style. The prose itself is also pretty funky in places. It would be made more diverse by... |
| Images: | 1 | ...pictures, which are entirely in absentia. But don't just stick in random crap, because... |
| Miscellaneous: | 3 | ...the randomness humor in this article is annoying. I think this idea lends more to the straight-man, textbook style. Maybe it would even work better in UnNews. |
| Final Score: | 19 | Loose-cannon prose and randomness humor weigh down a compelling theory. Keep at it! |

A superb article! I really love the idea of the medieval boring period! You could add something on "climb-it" gate. I suppose it would have to be a controversy about how to climb a gate ... which funnily enough I'm a bit of an expert on. You really should climb the hinge end because it is strongest!
Love the picture of the kid yawning! 85.211.166.99 11:51, July 14, 2010 (UTC)
