27bslash6 – Thorne in My Guide

January 4th, 2010

OK, so I basically spent my entire Sunday going thru this site. Because I’m extremely busy and have no spare time. So, if you want a tour guide of sorts for one of the funniest ideas online, I’m your man – if you happen to have the exact same sense of humor I do.

The site is ingenious. This dude basically writes two types of articles – ones in which he creates characters (either from his real life or made up) and ones in which he captures email exchanges he’s had w/ real people. The latter type is the funnier one. The character ones are dece – and he loses some points by not always being grammatically correct… just b/c he seems like the kind of person who’d know that stuff. Of course, he is Australian and not British. (And I can say that b/c I have relatives in Australia. And b/c, hey, it’s Australia.)

What’s particularly hilarious is his ability to win arguments and negotiations by being wak.

IMHO, here’s a listing of the best ones… I’m sure he’ll add more but as it stands, these are David Thorne’s Greatest Hits. To all who know me, you’re aware that I must try to rank and rate everything in sight. As such, the numbers in front represent how funny they were to me on a scale 1-10. To maximize your experience, perhaps what you should do is save one of the 10s for the end.

As you scroll thru, don’t forget to read the columns on the left-hand-side of the pages – they’re generally quite good.

For my monthly newsletter, I always try to send out the five funniest things for the month… I’m sure this is going to be fare for some time to come.
