I know this blog entry of yours has been getting some traction on FB...but if you had used cleaner language it may have gotten even more attention and reposts.
Exactly this. I only brought it up because you know John Castle that I want to see your writing be successful. It's not an attempt at a personal gotcha, but if lots of people here reading that article you wrote can read those things into it then it's certain other people will. You say that you haven't got any negative feedback elsewhere, but what is the audience there? People already on your side I'd guess. So you're able to preach to the crowd, but that sort of language won't win over any opponents since it doesn't come off as righteous anger but instead reads as just plain old ranting anger.
Well, I understand that you brought it up as a genuine point of concern; but let's think about who else here has: WAB, Lubak, and Turkey. I think we both know their motive is about as far from yours as it's possible to get. They're just trolling, and doing a pretty clumsy and transparent job of it, I might add. I appreciate the concern, but I really doubt that the ANTZ are reading my blog. Besides all of that, I already edited the post to dial back the language a bit early this morning.
It's really not, any more than "cunts" is gender-specific or even necessarily a pejorative in Australia. But I wouldn't expect you to understand that, being as you're a Cardassian and all.
Trolling would suggest an intent other than to simply ridicule you for your pathetic attempt at portraying Mr Righteous Lee Angry. Get it through your skull, other than being the subject of derision, your participation isn't required.
When do I ever drag you down? Put you down, sure... But as a rule, that's because you're being a loud mouthed schnook-like this business with how you may lose credibility by flinging words like "broads" and "bitches" in a rebuttal to a woman. But to drag you down would require me to be beneath you,which-as you're so low that dogshit scrapes you from it's shoes-just doesn't connect logically.
Never. But like a small child or a teacup chihuahua, you just haven't quite got the brains to figure out that you're never gonna succeed at it. Sometimes it's a nuisance, but more often it's just funny.
you're presuming that dragging you down is my goal... the fact that we both derive amusement from it means I've succeeded fully... hell, it could also mean that I'm even a better writer than you, as you rarely illicit better than the same sort of smile I get when the mayor of Toronto walks into a TV camera face first.
If a Cardassian politician walks face-first into a camera and you don't fall out of your chair laughing, that doesn't mean you're a better writer than I am. It means you have a neurological disorder.
Have you seen this guy's collected blooper reels? The face into camera moment was on par with Moleman getting hit in the nuts with hte football. Your narratives are about as good on your best day
