"Billy, when I say that ethics is our number one priority and safety is also our number one priority, you should take that to mean exactly what I said. Also quality. That's our number one priority as well. Don't look at me that way, you're in the corporate world now and this is how it works."

Seriously, though. Nobody gives a flying fuck, it was a novelty the first year. Nothing personal; it's not like EVERYFUCKINGBODY DOESN'T DO IT.

Some people, through no fault of their own, have no business on a stripper pole.  Some people should not sing in public.  Some people should probably not consider poetry as a profession.

And not everyone should write.  I'm not talking about anyone on this board, but it pains me to think of the next generation of Anne Rices and L Ron Hubbards that might be encouraged by this sort of shit.  For real.

AGREED.  Shit makes me write less because I feel like I OUGHT to.

Anyone ever think about how Richter inhabits the same reality as you and just scream and scream and scream, but in a good way?   :lulz:

Nah, one thread was an outrageous eyesore and couldn't be ignored.

A second one might crash the boards and give us aneurysms.   :lol:

I like reading your writing period.

There's no need for this nanowrimowhatever.  You post good shit every month.

Richter has the right of it.  It turns something fun into a chore.  IMO, of course.

Is there already a thread? I was hoping to get in before anyone did that.

Seriously, EVERY FUCKING YEAR FOR THE LAST TWELVE YEARS in November, every fucking board on the internet has been littered with people's forced writing. Even people who are normally EXCELLENT writers end up churning out painfully shackled prose under NaNoWriMo duress. While I understand the value of pushing yourself to write, I am far less enthusiastic about making sure everyone else views the hogtied-and-painfully-beaten results of this exercise.

Seriously, do YOU want to read a book that was written in 30 days with no forethought or editing? I'm sure you're proud, and good for you for churning out hundreds of pages of words.

Hundreds of pages of words.

Yeah.

No, Nigel, there's ONE NaNoWriMo thread.  One.  It's Dingo's.  Your OPPOSITIONAL DEFIANT DISORDER doubled the number of threads about NaNoWriMo.  Because now there's two (yours and Dingo's).

I'm sorry this particular chunk of interbutts has sat disturbing you for 12 years or so, really, but you're essentially singling out a person to ridicule who doesn't deserve it.

You could just not read the thread, OPPOSITIONAL DEFIANT DISORDER or not, like probably everyone else does with every other NaNoWriMo thread.

Ah well fuck it I was going to bump every NaNoWriMo I could find, but I think that'll be enough.

I mean, this is retarded, but not THAT retarded.
