The Best Paper Ever Written

If you’ve never read the best paper ever written then you’re in for a treat, let me assure you! It’s not possible that you’ve made it this far in your life and not read the best paper ever written! To reveal this magical and utterly astonishing work of American literature requires great patience and much anticipation. Do you think you can handle it? It’s apparent that having read this far into the introductory paragraph of such a paper demonstrates your bewildering capacity for patience. We’re all certainly proud of you, us who have constructed this glorious and best paper ever written.

Apparently, you’re not giving up at this point. Look at you! Already one indention and you’re not giving up! I can’t believe it. Such perseverance and tenacity deserves nothing but the finest of rewards and boy do we have that in store for you! Tell me, what do you plan to do once you’re read the best paper ever written? Is it accurate to say that you’ll give writing on your own altogether? Many curious (and often frustrated) readers such as yourself find it rather rewarding to just throw in the towel and have often decided that writing with a purpose after basking in the glory of the greatest paper ever written is quite futile. Does this fit your description? Are you someone who gives up easily when you see that the standard has been set higher than you believe you’re capable of achieving?
