[color=#000000ost_uid0]Top Ten Tricks and Tips for Writing a Fiver



10. Write one for something the site actually covers. The Hardy Boys, Garfield, and Barney are not good subjects.

9. Come to think of it, an episode of Barney could probably be covered in ten seconds.

8. Don't be afraid to milk a joke for all it's worth.

7. Just scrawl down any old rubbish that comes to mind.

6. Don't be afraid to rip other fivers off.

5. Don't be afraid to include actual literary devices, like parallelism for example.

4. Don't be afraid to include running jokes, like this entire list thus far for example.[/colorost_uid0]

“There must have been a point in early human history when it was actually advantageous to, when confronted with a difficult task, drop it altogether and go do something more fun, because I do that way too often for it to be anything but instinct.” -- Isto Combs
