If you love to laugh at truly nonsensical grammatical wonkiness, you totally need to check out this thread on the NaNoWriMo forums: And these were PUBLISHED!

My favorite published quotes of horribleness from the first post in the thread:

“Sherlock Holmes leafed through the papers with one hand, as with the other he continued to crunch toast and marmalade.”

“The police report said there had been a thunderclap, as if the burning house had disappeared so suddenly that the air had rushed back inaudibly.”

These quotes inspire me to consider writing completely thoughtlessly, to see if I can come up with stuff that’s as funny as this in my own writing … which will then be thoroughly edited or thrown into the deepest trash receptable I can find, of course. ;)
