I learned this style as a child but I'm not really impressed with my comic or ironic side. I'd much rather write straight out of despair...
...care proposal--which dealt with the entire question of child socialization--was narrowly defeated in the closest vote of the conference. In a compromise settlement, its important provisions were tacked on to the economy proposal. All the priorities were long and somewhat vague; local chapters will be able to interpret them broadly...
