hm...the worst opening line:

"Want to go to the S&M Family outlet?" Sadi asked the helpless little boy.

S&M Family Outlet is a big clothing store here in Texas.

Try making up bad intros that contradict themselves like the examples at the beginning. I.E. the one that gave a huge and accurate description of Marilee and then said that she defied description. LOL

Here's a really bad one:
Long white hair flapping loosely in the night breeze, dark face staring up at the sky, eyes blankly observing the stars, thin fingers grasping an old spellbook, tattered robes flowing slowly around him, the dead wizard felt the effects of a fireball gone awry.

She was standing on the medowy grass, her serene eyes gazing in his godly figure, she came closer to him, leaned towards him, eyes fixed upon eachother, closer and closer when she said:
-Jon you got a F- !
-But Mrs.Showmaker my mom is gonna kill me!

Ok, 1 sentence for me:

Up the creaky, steep stairs she went, up,up,up,up,up,up,up,up,up,up,up,up,up,up,up,up, and, finally, up, into the darkness that descended upon the landing, she found a door that said, Ribbit, scmibbit, i'll do what I please, then she entered the dark, clammy, endless room where a skelton sat before the almighty glow of the eternally great and ever-powerful computer that had held her brother in its gaze until he ate no longer and rotted away in front of it, and on the screen was the last thing he had ever ordered the super-slow internet to do, the screen said, "Downloading file 'ccoooppyyymeeeeeee.wpd' 50% complete".


Like the super-run-on sentence? If you were able to follow it, I applaud you.

LOL runons are definitely the best of the worst. And I followed it pretty well, although I skipped about 5 words in the middle, which I always do for some reason in any paragraph.

*parody of Lemony Snicket*

The boy wore absolutely nothing except for a t-shirt, jeans, socks and two shoes on his feet.

This is a story. Stories are good. This story is good. This is a good story. This is a story of goodness. Goodness is what this story is about. Is this story good?




Not really.

Read this book and you will want to puke, scream, run around in circles, poke your eyes out, eat your dog, smash your computer, run around the world naked, do backflips, hang yourself, then go and take over Hades once your dead.

Or maybe you will just fall asleep.

Here's mine!

'I'm a failure,' Tony thought as he picked a delightfully verdant string of snot from his gaping nostril and smeared it across the big "See Me," scrawled in red ink below the "F" on his history exam.

I started cracking up hysterically when I wrote this. I don't know why. It just hit me funny and I was rolling in laughter. LOL.
