Subject: Authors read to join unique parody collaboration!!
Okay we're gonna try something interesting here. Like a collaboration parody, but here's how it works. We will have as many authors as possible each write a parody of the same song and send it to me without showing anyone else. Once I get all of them, I'm going to take the best lines and verses from each person's parody and arrange different parts together to a full new parody and see how it turns out. Kind of like a Mad Lib, cause you're giving lines but don't know what the topic is or anything, and you have to see how they fit in. I'll fix it up to try and make it make as much sense as possible. As for the song:
Self Esteem by The Offspring. This is a well known tune, and I can see it working well for this idea. Write a whole parody of it on anything you want and send it to darkjon64@hotmail.com
I'm curious to see how this turns out!

DarkJon, I'd like to try. I haven't written that many, but the ones I've written I think are ok. And I was apart of the What's Going On parody. What's the deadline?
Subject: Re: Authors read to join unique parody collaborati
Well I'm thinking about a week or so, give everyone a chance to see whats going on.
Subject: Re: Authors read to join unique parody collaborati
I'm IN! Let me know when you need the finished work
Subject: Re: Authors read to join unique parody collaborati
bwauhahahahahahahahahahahahaha!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
ok
I'm up for it, won't win, but I'm up for it.
Subject: Re: Authors read to join unique parody collaborati
Interesting idea, I'll give it a shot...why not?
Subject: Re: Authors read to join unique parody collaborati
Well I guess get them in as soon as you can. I'm going to write one of my own, and I won't read any of yours until I finish it, so let me know be making the subject something like 'Self esteem' or something. Anyway, hope to see some of them soon!

Subject: Re: Authors read to join unique parody collaborati
I sent my lyrics in, and so should you. Hopefully, this will surpass my ill-fated collab parody of "Stairway to Heaven."
Subject: Re: Authors read to join unique parody collaborati
Sure you sent it in? I havent gotten it!
Jon
Subject: Re: Authors read to join unique parody collaborati
i don't know that song but if there's a sequel to this i'll try
Subject: Re: Authors read to join unique parody collaborati
if you write a full parody to submit for this, you should try submitting it after the collab. version runs and see if you can do any better on your own
Subject: DarkJon64!
I am going to send my parody via private message on here. Is that ok?
Subject: Re: Authors read to join unique parody collaborati
Well, I just did my parody of SELF ESTEEM called "Soylent Green"
(personally I didn't like it, but what the hell)
Subject: Re: Authors read to join unique parody collaborati
So far I have 3 and they are gonna work well together! Anyone else hurry up and get em in!
Jon
Subject: Re: Authors read to join unique parody collaborati
I'll have mine to you by tonight.

Subject: Re: Authors read to join unique parody collaborati
I'm in! I sent it to your hotmail account, as well as a message on here.
-Jeff
Subject: Re: Authors read to join unique parody collaborati
Ok great, so so far I have:
PF4Eva
Jeff Buchoff
Bethie Baby
STG
And I think I'll use mine that I wrote of that song a long time ago, because I've seen yours already and I forgot to write one of my own.
Anyone else? I'm gonna start making it now, so let me know ASAP if you are still gonna get in on this!
Jon
Subject: Re: Authors read to join unique parody collaborati
