There is a Bulwar Lytton website devoted to bad writing: http://www.bulwer-lytton.com

The opening line of his novel:

“It was a dark and stormy night; the rain fell in torrents — except at occasional intervals, when it was checked by a violent gust of wind which swept up the streets (for it is in London that our scene lies), rattling along the housetops, and fiercely agitating the scanty flame of the lamps that struggled against the darkness.”

— Edward George Buller-Lytton in his novel "Paul Clifford" (1830)

No offense taken...

Find a library and read the book. You'll very quickly understand.
