I’m rather partial to a little mimicry and gentle parody and have had this idea for a little while. The topic of each post is up to the poster, but it might work best if you choose a topic that is not what the poster usually talks about to heighten the humour.
Just one rule: only parody someone you respect.

Like many others, I sincerely hope and pray that John Kerry wins the election. However, one aspect of the press coverage dismays me as a gay man. Do we really need to focus on all the perceived negatives? Okay, so psephology and this whole voting business is something I’m relatively new to, but is it really helpful to harp on things we’re never going to change anyway?

I thought your analysis of the latest test was spot on. Australia have greater strength overall, but the West Ham boys are cricketers to watch. Although their (now deceased) center was a bit pretentious, the general style and wit of the bowler made them a joy and a privilege, a team filled with the spirit of fun.

Obviously, you have no grasp of the demographic.

Usually I’m not too concerned about this sort of thing, but [insert a half-page, devastatingly witty denunciation of all things demographic here.]

Whatever. I am clearly more intelligent than all the rest of you. Worship my awesomeness.
You forgot the “y’all” at the end, Kythereia.

Now, this [insert gross, yucky object here] has an interesting flavour…
roger thornhill: Good impression, but you weren’t rambling enough and only mentioned being gay one time!
Shodan: 
matt_mcl: winks and nods
Ogre: licks finger and gives a wet willie for mocking my post
glances around nervously, flees the thread
[Am I allowed to play since I’ve already been done? Maybe next poster could choose someone at random…]
Wow, you know how to give a wet willie? That is impressive. I don’t even know how to give a dry willie.
Style? What do you mean, style?
Nomenclature or phrasing?
More importantly, what is the deepest part of the ocean, and has anyone ever been there?

Funny, though, that furt manages to have one of the best records in the league again this year.
(That was damned good, though.)

Politics, politics, politics. Bloody heck!
Oh, cool! A parody thread!

I’ve found that Joyce’s Ulysses reveals fundamental insights into the validity of the claim that man has explored Challenger Deep in the Marianas Trench only once, in 1960, for twenty minutes. Oh, and forget new Hollywood - silent cinema is the real deal. Alas for the talent of yesteryear…
Oh, and Yale is my favorite college.
