Enter the Bulwer-Lytton contest where www means "wretched writers welcome"
For those who are not familiar, the opening sentence of Edward Bulwer-Lytton's Paul Clifford is quoted below: “It was a dark and stormy night; the rain fell in torrents, except at occasional intervals, when it was checked by a violent gust of wind which swept up the streets (for it is in London that our scene lies), rattling along the house-tops, and fiercely agitating the scanty flame of the lamps that struggled against the darkness.” The 2021 winner: “A lecherous sunrise flaunted itself over a flatulent sea, ripping the obsidian bodice of night asunder with its rapacious fingers of gold, thus exposing her dusky bosom to the dawn’s ogling stare.” |

It's supposed to be. The Bulwer-Lytton contest is to literature what the obfuscated C contest is to maintainable code.
