Worker drones, unite!

Hi all,

In a bid to try something a little different, yet still the same in a “can we do something even funnier than our excoriatingly witty normal blogs”, how about interested parties spending a few moments coming up with the worst pitches/synopses/treatments/loglines you can dream up?

Points (and membership of this oh so terribly exclusive blog) will be awarded to:
  1. Terribly thought-out basic premises
  2. Offensive or bigoted lead characters
  3. Narrowness of world-view
  4. Having the smallest target audience possible
  5. Appealing to almost no-one
  6. Bad grammar, spelling or punctuation (or a complete lack thereof)
  7. Clichéd storylines, characters or settings
  8. Themes with a potential to start a war (or at least a good riot)
  9. If a TV series, no potential for longevity
  10. If a comedy, try to be as unfunny as possible
  11. A thinly-veiled (if you can be bothered to veil it at all) attack on all those people who just can't see how fearsomely talented you truly are.
  12. If it's a fictional account of a real-life story, use real names, publish phone numbers, addresses and photos where possible.
And stuff along those lines. Unlike boring normal writing, successful candidates should ideally be looking to scream out loud how little they care for research, depth, emotional content or the niggly stuff like libel laws, defamation or prohibitions of necrophilia.

Go on, this is your chance to flex muscles you've always wanted to...
