Altarial Posted July 29, 2005 Share Posted July 29, 2005 Really bad writing contest San Francisco, California (AP) -- Dan McKay is a truly wretched writer. In fact, his prose has been judged the worst on the planet. He won San Jose State University's yearly Fiction Contest for worst sentence in the English language. The computer analyst took the $250 prize by comparing a woman's body to a British sports car. His sentence opens: "As he stared at her ample bosom, he daydreamed of the dual Stromberg carburetors in his vintage Triumph Spitfire." An English professor involved in the contest calls McKay's entry just ludicrous. http://www.wtsp.com/weird/weird_article.aspx?storyid=16808 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
