"Spoof Spoof Spoof"

Why is there a need for everyone to start putting the word 'spoof' in their topic headers. Do they think that people on this forum are too stupid to tell when they read a story, or are they worried about getting sued?

I mean, if people really think these things are real, we don't really want these people on the site, do we? (well, maybe for comedy value).

I personally think that would be a great idea to have more non-spoof stories on the forum, I like to read new stories, especially horror, and I look at the Stories forum quite a bit, but unfortunately there aren't that many any more.

Perhaps it's just me.

I feel so used...

A few comedy-type posts win GAD, then everyone scrambles do to a "spoof".
It's like Mel Brooks - he used to do good films, now just does lazy rip-offs.

*Brentmeister voice*
Original comedy is hard, and yes,anyone can write something based on another existing idea - Hollywood does it often. Cogito ergo sum, vis a vis these spoofs, make them funny or be original.

just did a search of topics with "spoof" in the title
*laughs inapropriately at word spoof*
seems theres quite a lot of spoofage (2 pages of results) on the forums

Is this a spoof related crimewave?
find out in my upcoming topic called:
"Sherlock homes and the case of the rampant spoof (spoof)"


(note to anyone who thinks that I'd write that...I won't :) )

I am a spoof of the greatest man that ever lived.

(damn that sounded better before I typed it)

or dudespoof

(perhaps not!)

If I needed a nickname I think it would be spoofdude.

In fact, I might have one little thing to post tonight, that's kind of a story without FOG Characters, but it's only a page or so long.

Dunno where to put it though...here, or in Life.

It's decided.

Once I finish my Maths Coursework this week, I'm beginning a new 'short' story. Not a spoof.

Possibly a sequel to the Devil's Invasion...

Anyone who's ever read my stories, would you prefer a sequel or something new?

There has been a recent influx of SR spoofs. People should try something without SR characters in it.
