Writing Fails: 28 Ways to Murder the English Language

I found these on the internet - sadly they are fake...

Here!


What do you think? Have you ever written anything similar yourself for REAL?
I used a variation on #9 in an English essay xD

Re: Writing Fails: 28 Ways to Murder the English Language

Number 9 seems similar to this text from 'The Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy':
"The ships hung in the sky in much the same way that bricks don't."

My favourite is number 28.

Number 9 seems ironical and bizzare enough to be serious.

Murder the English language? More like the English language fell off the Empire State Building and has to use a breathing machine to stay alive, but you, being the cool ninja-healer you are break through the wall of the hospital and give the English language new life.

Some (maybe most) of these could be really good in the right context and writing style. Honestly, I like them.

I agree. Many of these were used in The Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy, and were quite funny when used correctly.
