As I mentioned last week, I was on Craigslist browsing for a
handyman. But I just happened to look up people who were advertising themselves
as writers for hire.
I was not disappointed.
Keep in mind these are real, actual ads. For writers. These are direct pastes. I
promise I have not changed a single word here or made up any of this. I’d link
to them directly, but I’m sort of afraid they’d trace me and come after me. If
they can dangle modifiers, mangle phrases and butcher sentences this badly,
what would they do to me? So I will leave you with a few, word for word, that
are apparently from the same person or group. I put the titles in boldface. I’m
not going to comment after, because that seems like gilding the lily. Or
spitting on the skunk, in this case. Also, I simply don’t know what to say. Perhaps
you are left less speechless than I am and can shed some light on this:

Oh, dear. I am especially impressed with: "It is so ESSAY for them." Heh, heh.
ReplyDeleteIt's like when my son was in 6th grade, and wanted to buy a phone on eBay from China. The description advised:
"Having a Hot expensive phone experience with spending ten times less."
"Check out more on this Brand new lovely Garget."
OUR MISSION:
"Provide the professional sunshine feeling to our customers and turn out to have mutually positive feedback."
Wow. And of course that's just what every mother wants for her 6th grader - a Hot expensive Garget which provides professional sunshine!

ReplyDeleteThere's just so much to love, huh?
DeleteUnbelievable. Wonder how much business they get?
ReplyDeleteI wondered the same thing, Donna!
DeleteIf only it was that essay to do. WHO falls for this?
ReplyDeleteI guess the kind of people who are willing to pay others to do their homework? But don't you wonder what they get? Can you imagine the doctoral dissertation on, say Emily Dickenson's imagery? "Emile was good poem. She have write many good fine poem that she write no one feel any complaint with poem...."
DeleteThose sound like the weird robo-comments that (thankfully) go straight into the spam folder.

True! But what I wonder is, even if it's a business run by non-English speakers, why don't they hire their own writers to do the ads?
