I made that one up, but have you read anything that's so ridiculous you pitied the poor author?

Get the idea? he gurgled.

It doesn't have to be dialog. Description, perhaps....Or anything that wets your chewing gum. But something so unintentionally hilarious that you had to laugh in embarrassment for the author. Or threw the ebook reader across the room in hopes of breaking the substrate.

ADDED: For FUN reading, I highly recommend Gun in Cheek and Son of Gun in Cheek, by the inimitable Bill Pronzini.
