Humour: | 5 | This one is a hard category to judge because the pictures carry most of the article, but they're judged in a separate category. |
Concept: | 6 | "It's funny because it's boring" is a really hard to make work. You're on the right track here, but it needs a little something. A hint of something harder edged under the narrator's bland monologue? It just needs a hint; there's no reason to go overboard |
Prose and formatting: | 7 | The prose is nice; no major problems that I can see and the narrator's voice really suits the tone of the article. |
Images: | 8 | Like I said, the astonishing blandness of the images really carries the article. Did you doctor them, or did you trawl through a bunch of them to find the blandest? Either way, good work! |
Miscellaneous: | 6.5 | Average of other scores. |
Final Score: | 32.5 | You have the beginnings of a good article here. It could be lengthened a touch, but I wouldn't try to make it too much longer. Making fun of how boring and bland something is is a difficult business, and like I say this article does need a little pep to make that work. Take a look at some of Monty Python's accountancy humour, or Grampa Simpson's tedious monologues for a little inspiration on how to make something boring and funny at the same time. |
