Finally. A worthy post. (btw, I'm waiting for Kleenex to sell 144-packs.) Q: Can we somehow make a Hitler Parody out of this theme?
I thought it had a few good lines. Obviously, this is a satire. He has a whole series of these kinds of "reviews" at Amazon. It got so popular he was a guest on the CBS morning show apparently.
I hope so, because it is mostly incomprehensible. I really didn't find anything funny about it. It was too stupid to be funny. If you want to hear a true story, I could tell you about the times I used toilet paper as a coffee filter.
Satire or parodies can be too dry or ambiguous, or way too exaggerated, so it can be either a complete dud or hysterically obvious. Over at Hitler Parodies you can see many writers trying too hard. It's a fuzzy line which makes good satire not as easy to write as it might seem. The Kleenex review was a bit long-winded. On the second run through it got much funnier. If you want to hear a true story, I could tell you about the times I used toilet paper as a coffee filter. That would be some funny imagery...To make it funnier you'd need an oddly inappropriate set up. Like already being on the bowl with a coffee pot in one hand and roll in the either. I dunno. But satire/parodies are its own genre of humor.

Well, everybody has there own sense of humor, I suppose.
