http://www.somethingawful.com/news/funny-burlesque-names/ is the joke that 3 people were involved in writing this poo poo morsel?  i don't think these listicles fit with the tone of the site or the other front page articles and i'd like to see less of them if that's cool.

From what I remember Asterios' articles are usually okay, so i.d.e.k. This was short, not very funny, and felt like someone's half-baked hot take.

"One thing we could riff on is that burlesque dancers are attention-seeking. We would just have to turn that into a joke some how." "What if one of the names was Trinity St. Attention Seeking?" "That's why I bring you along, crack writing team from Twitter!"

This article is 95 words long. if you were to incude the header and footer, they would make up about 20% of the new word count. What more do you people want!?

asterios went on the same rant when he got on maddox's podcast in other news, asterios unironically joined maddox's podcast we got poo poo like, oh, quote:Asterios: I'm gonna tell you guys about an actual experience I had with this Burlesque bullshit just last night. Okay? the podcast on a whole is pretty poo poo, i stopped listening to it awhile ago Pittsburgh Lambic fucked around with this message at 01:14 on Apr 12, 2016 |

The thought of Maddox having a podcast is really funny, like it's the sort of thing he would make fun of people for doing, but it also makes perfect sense as I imagine he likes to hear himself talk.

Heh, deadline met, bitch!" kinda way.

this week's was better 'cause the sparse word count was transferred onto some good trump pics. i don't wanna poo poo on him completely because it's not like i do any writing of my own. I wouldn't be able to come up with content that fulfills all the funny/original/punctual criterias on a weekly basis.

Hey! I saw that some of you guys weren't happy with the quality of my writing, and I totally understand. I've been dealing with a cross-country move these past few weeks (selling a ton of furniture, finding a new apartment, drug dealer, etc.) and I honestly haven't had the time that a site as great as this deserves. I know that a lot of the people criticizing my writing are likely also comedy writers themselves, or people who've always wanted to give writing for the front page a shot. So I'll tell you what: for next Monday's article, I'll publish the funniest originally written piece someone from this thread sends me. I'll obviously give you total credit and the fee. My email address is asterios.kokkinos@gmail.com. Please include your SA forums username in the article. Thanks!

What would be even funnier is if you posted the bad submissions, to shame them. I'll take my fee in forum upgrades.

GlitchThief posted:What would be even funnier is if you posted the bad submissions, to shame them. Eh, that's not really my style of comedy, although that would be funny. I mean honestly, SA's had the same writers for a while now, and I think it'd be cool to expose the audience to some new voices.
