Firefly -> Poopetry~Collab. Fiction - New: Horrible Haikus (7/13/2008 14:09:15)
|
Are you looking for some adventure? For some laughs? For some terrible poetry that will make your eyes bleed out of their sockets? Look no further, my friend, for you've come to the realm of "Poopetry," where L&L gathers to write the worst poems conceivable to humanity. Read us, revere in the power of grotesque language, and someday (once we've converted you to a loyal follower of the worst), make your own contribution to wow us all with its undeniable horror.
Rules: (Yes, there are a few guidelines even to terrible poetry =P)
1. Always, always, always, go for the worst poetry possible. Don't try to add a good one here. Such a wonderful piece will be... dishonoured, shall we say?
2. Don't post two poems in a single post. Double posting is fine, but posting more than one poem creates problems when linking to individual posts in the index.
3. Don't make degrading comments that sound like attacks. We're all here to have fun! ^_^ These poems never represent the skills of their authors.
4. Don't be tempted to post the poems directly on the comments thread. It's a fun collab, but spamminess and disobedience to the forum order isn't appropriate.
5. No inappropriate material please. Bad poetry or not, it's still a PG-13 forum.
6. Try not to make a poem that has it's horribleness derived mainly from spelling and grammar errors. That makes it less funny, less, er, creative, shall I say?
7. No prose please. Horrible prose is fun, but not really in line with this collab.
8. Always post your own work. Never go posting a horrible poem you read, even if you give credit to the author. The purpose is laughter, not degradation.
9. If any bad poetry mini-contests commence, the decisions of judges are final. No whining, please.
10. If you want to post a poem, you don't have to clear it with me beforehand. But make sure you comment on the comments thread right after posting so we can keep track of it.
11. Anyone who is an AA and therefore capable of posting in collaborative fiction is welcome to join this collab, even spontaneously. If an AP wants to post, please PM me. I'll see if I can get the permission to let an AA post for you and give you the credit. No promises, though. If someone is neither an AA nor an AP, there is absolutely no way for them to post until they're approved.
12. If you have the poem posted on another thread, it's perfectly fine to duplicate a version onto here.
13. Try to have a title for the poem, please. Makes the index easier to manage without a bunch of "Untitled 101" stuff...
Have I forgotten something? Maybe. Please tell me if I have.
