Talk:Brothel

Why nom?

Not often do we get to see such subtle humour here. The article is written quite well enough - apart from that taco joke, I would like to see that replaced. It's out of place since the article is not based on such random stuff. What slays me is the absolutely innocent, poker-faced report of what a brothel is, as if this were a made-to-order article, written to fool a naive official for instance. "...and punishment is meted out for those who have behaved in an ill-fashion." This is perhas the best sample of the jokes in this one. I seriously cannot see what could be added or removed to improve the article - and I'm not trying to act innocent. I know everything about brothels. What's more, it's written in an encyclopedic style (as far as I can tell). For instance, adding a history section would ruin the article on the spot. I cannot imagine something like "according to archaeologists, the first brothels were in use as early as so-and-so, etc" bringing anything essentially good into the text. What I'm trying to say with all this is: now it's not forced, it's funny, and it's original. -- Style  Guide 19:31, 17 December 2008 (UTC)
