Loobie is a genius. His posts are IQ tests. I can tell a lot by
how people respond to him. For example, you could belong
to Mensa, but you wouldn't because you know that using your
alleged Intelligence Quotient as a status symbol is heinously
bad form. Way to go.

You clearly define "good writer" as someone with passable
punctuation and grammar.

Very pedestrian. True geniuses don't take the time to dot "i's" and
cross "t's."

Any secretary would fit the bill for you. Or any run-of-the-mill
editor. He who cannot, and so he edits. Everyone can be a
critic. And anyone.

I define a "good writer" as someone with excellent descriptive
skills, an observant mind and eye, a drive to express, and the
courage to be creative. A good story teller is something else.

Then there are literary writers.

Stephen King is a good story teller.

Anne Rice is a literary writer who is also a best seller writer,
which is rare.

And no matter what, everyone needs an editor.

One excellent piece of advice: it is probably best not to criticize
that which you do not understand.

Another: free your mind, your ass will follow.

You know what?

You are an asshole.

I bet you know that already.

I was going to give reasons why you are an asshole, but there are so many
.....

You are just not worth the breathe ... the keystrokes ... it would take to
tell you.

A good writer is cognizant of the rules of language being used, and is
capable of following those rules, or bending them when it serves the purpose
of the thing being written. Mark Twain was a perfect example. The OP of this
thread does not fit this category.

I'm sure it seems that way to you, any time someone points out something
you'd rather pretend didn't exist. This permits you to sleep peacefully.

Cummings, as in Edward Estlin, was a better example of a fine literary
writer. Twain was a wit and a story teller.

Meanwhile, if you have that stick removed from up your ass it would be
easier for you to hump my posts.

I understand... :-)

I'll often take time to prepare a really nice meal for dad, but 'nosh on
leftovers while I'm doing it.

He also likes some stuff sometimes that I don't care for, but I'll make
it for him anyhoo and make something else (simpler) for myself.

Gotta care for the men in our lives, be they husbands or dad's eh? <G>

If it changed its writing style, it was trolling to begin with. All previous

It's bad enough the special bus dropped off that moron in the White House, a
child who sets a hideous example for the rest of the country's children, in
terms of language. We don't need it here, too.

True, initially, but since I've gotten into xeriscaping, I've developed

54%, Om. Remember the number. It's pretty dependable, and won't vary much

Still better than a half chance. :-)

As far as the whitehouse goes tho', I've given up hope and am just
marking time... <sigh>

Personally, I found the "crack trailer" essay to be very entertaining.
;-) I'm betting it's pretty accurate.

no problem, I can train you

it's pretty simple really

my goal is to write like someone might talk
and NEVER NEVERNEVERuse the phrase "and too"

I'll be sure to bring you my doggie bag after each fine meal

one of my goals is to compliment the readers intellect, if you write
straight forward enough you don't have to write in complete sentences,
complete sentences lend to redundancy, redundancy leads to a dumber
class of readers.

just make sure the mother****er flows alright, and above all, do insist
on some tongue and cheek phrasing, like last nights review... crack
critic, anorexic alcoholic,
a picture of Jesus with the eyes that light up... see how velvety that
phrase is..

even crack critic had a crispness to it.. anorexic alcoholic.. makes
you feel metallic and buzzy..

tongue and cheek

never use trendy buzz words, any literate ass hole can plagiarize

WE ARE THE TREND, WE...

set the trend, it's simple

my writing forces a souls un-divided attention, it is somewhat
un-predictable
hopefully interesting enough to want to continue.. but written in the
common language so as to be grossly understood

you're goin be alright, stick around, Ill teach you how

it's like an old cow chewing her cud, yule get it..

lmao

if you're gonna turn a corner with your words you may as well turn
three,
people like it. Many good things come in three, it takes a simpleton to
only turn 2 corners...

if Im going to make it to my goal, if Im going to make it to my chair
in time, if we're going to eat good for FREE, brother we got to move in
threes.

Four can be a bore, it's too far to carry the average reader.

You writing this down? It don't matter, you're gonna eat sleep and
breathe this new language, this new literary form, this NEW FANTABULOUS
FABRICATION , A STUPENDOOOUUUUS PERPETRATION..remember we are raising
the bar, we don't need anyones approval, that's part of the approval
pro-cess.

What's worse than someone asking "am I cool?" HELL NO! IF YOU GOTTA
ASK, THEN NO! YOU AIN'T EVEN CLOSE TO BEING COOL.

same idea only food reviews.

nobody thinks in complete sentences, you actually write what people are
thinking.

in doing this, you place the reader closer to your encounter, it is a
more personal read. remember, you compliment the readers intelligence
by being straight forward, by not necessarily moving in complete
sentences, because no-one thinks in complete sentences.

i've thought that too

I have a small lot behind my house, it's grown over with weeds.
This summer, they were all in full bloom, very beautiful large purple
blooms.

oh no, not me
never touched the stuff

the closest I come to cocaine is my morning coffee

I come pre-wired, but I will smoke a blunt from time to time, just to
level out... I don't buy it, or go looking for some

I run my own construction company, but it's been a little slow this
year, sometimes I have to make the good-times last.

Chung is actually a short, fat, Filipina slight attendant named Benedict
Corpuz. Who is obsessed with our friend lubricant, judging from the way he
follows him around Usenet. You can see pictures of his Mama on his web site.
And Benedict in a Superman costume, just have had it specially made for
his squat fat little body.

don't forget to ramshack

http://www.benedictcorpuz.com

he exploited his entire family on the site
which is fine as his family is beautiful

however! one should not be so malicious AND hang his family out on the
net.

here he is now, this is for real...

I have a large patch of evening primrose on one side of my driveway that
comes back every year... Looks like a weed patch initially until it
breaks out in nice pretty pink blossoms each spring about 2" across.

It dies back during the summer and disappears, then comes back from seed.

I'm rather fond of dandilions too.

There ought to be a song from that title, to the tune of "How Can I
Have Spring Fever (When it isn't even Spring?)"

We've been down this road before, Barry (and assorted sockpuppets). I
actually contacted the guy that you *think* I am after you posted his
personal information on Usenet, in your first case of mistaken identity
me. Remember? That's probably how you lost your last ISP.

I, however, KNOW who you are. And you hate it.

Keep guessing, Bar.
