The Bad Sex Award

Submitted by mediumgeek on Mon, 28/11/2005 - 20:01

Yes, my blog is becoming one of those boring blogs that just posts pointers to other people's stuff. No originality here! I just couldn't resist this time after laughing my ass of over the longlisted passages for the Bad Sex in Fiction award.

It was pretty amazing to find out that there was such an award in the first place but reading the passage made it even better. If you want to have a good laugh (and be amazed over how weird some are) you can go to the respectable source Guardian and read them.

What I am wondering is if the authors think this is sexy? Especially, the passage by John Updike? Horrendous if you ask me!

you are more original than you think -- you're the first person I've seen to make it through a mention of this award without resulting to puns along the lines of The Guardian's "Stiff competition". So there ;)

Hehe:-). But wouldn't the other bloggers still be the more original ones of coming up with a pun? I guess in a way it is a bit unoriginal since a quick search showed me that most of them seem to be using the same joke:-).
