How to Write and Teach Satire: Review Rants That Roast
Writing the Satire
Reviews beg satire – roast the rant. Target a critic: “He gave one star – films a galaxy now.” Hit the tone – praise, pan: “Food so good, I starved.” Keep it wild – tame flops. Write: “Games trash – Im champ!” Yelps wild takes inspire. Start yours: “Books dull – Im asleep.” Practice turns stars into stingers.
Teaching the Technique
Teach review roasts with a rant twist. Give “bad meal” – twist: “Meal so great, I fasted!” Show Yelp zings – tone, sting. Steps: review, twist, jab. Assign “dull flick” – spark: “Flick so good, I napped!” Discuss bite: wild wins. Warn off flat – zing rules. Review-off: pitch a rant, best roast wins. Reviews are raves – teach them to rave it.
