Not Epics, or Anti-Epics, on the other hand, are articles written with the sole purpose of parodying Epics. They're generally of a short nature, involve the most basics of storyline and generally relate to or poke fun at epics in general/one particular epic article.
Pointers to making an anti-Epic[edit | edit source]
- Anti-Epic articles are usually really really short, like a couple of lines etc.
- Keep it original, two many parodies often ruin the joke. Stick to cool concepts and one liners related to the EPIC theme.
- Only write about something you feel is illgocial or funny, that is kinda the goal of our site. :P
- Remember, Anti-Epics don't have to be insanely random, they usually display some sort of hidden pun in the form of puns, or give some sort of pun.
- A good example of an Anti-Epic would be The Fantastically longwinded EPICly proportioned chronicles of the Bad Humdinger-ring, somewhat Phallic Doo-Clinkering Contraption of Custtard Man, 2: The Pointless yet very long Sequel. (Foreword by Tim Allen!)
- Add the template {{NEHPIC}} or {{NEHPIC2}} to any Anti-Epics you make.
