Rich Morris' Comics - YAFGC and The ComixBlog

Nah, that can never happen my fine wordsmith.

Bah! Those were just whiny little snots who felt that having a legitimate criticism gave them license to be ********, and then had their feelings hurt when we said: "Criticism is fine, but you don't have to be jerk about it."

Anyone who can't tell the difference between constructive criticism and simply being mean-spirited is a legitimate target. Sadly, they don't make a Customize Parts kit with a flamethrower, so I'll have to use my built-in Anti-Zoid 3-Barrel Shock Cannon instead.

P.S., Of course that applies to me as well. If I get of out hand, feel free to open fire. I have an E-Shield Generator - I can take it.

I ought to take a moment to mention that this is something I've really enjoyed about butting ideological heads with you, Lyger. You have a strong and occasionally aggressive forum posture, but remain quite open to discussion, to comparing ideas, and you remain quite conscious throughout of the goal of the discussion, your points, and your reasons.

But I fear in doing this, I'm utterly missing the point of this thread, aren't I?

Nah, you're just feeding fuel to those who think you're too long winded.

But if you weren't, we wouldn't have needed to give you your own personal thread to serve as a lectern, would we?

*sips cocoa*

I overheard two of my students, back when I was teaching, discussing me in the hall one day. One commented that I couldn't give directions to the bathroom in less than two hours.

The other said, "Yes, but the forty minutes devoted to the last five hundred years of changes to institutional layout and its subtle effects on the collective human self-identity would've been worth the fifteen minute rant about why postmodernism ruined the urinal experience."

I like to think both observations are true, and yes, I'm ponderous, long-winded, some would say not worth the effort, and get a lot of tl;drs. It's easy enough to skip what I say; I trust those who feel I'm not worth it do so, and hopefully a few folks find some of the things I say interesting. I do suppose that thread makes it easier to ignore some of what I say, and if that's how some people like to use it, great! I want them to enjoy being here, and if I'm part of what's preventing them from enjoying themselves, then I'm doing Rich a disservice. I didn't realize there was any sort of strong or organized "shut up, Rancourt" sentiment here, nor did I stop to think that the thread might have served as a way to "contain" me, and I hope that, for those who feel that way, these are adequate methods in place to ignore me, and they can carry on comfortably. I'm sad to hear it, I certainly don't enjoy hearing that people don't like me, but I'm not so in love with myself as to imagine I'm for everyone.

I can bring nothing to the table here but myself. Please make of that self what you will, and thank you. I don't tend to get a lot of criticism, perhaps because people are worried they'll have to sit through volumes one through four of my reply to it. I promise to keep this one down to at least a novella in length.

Rancourt, I, for one, enjoy reading your comments, please continue.

Well, if I'm going to be the sort that doesn't suffer fools gladly (I can barely suffer them irritably) I had also bloody well better be the sort who's very much in touch with the fact that I, myself, am perfectly capable of being an insufferable fool (although I'm trying to get out of practice.)

I would take criticism gladly if there was a reason for it but there isn't because i am a pretty little princess, perfect in every way, so i cannot help you with that .
Also, i enjoy Rancourt posts even when there are no urinals involved.

Sporadically yelling "Yay boobies!" can redeem almost any sin. *nods sagely*

Well then,

YAY BOOBIES!

:clap

That should do me for a while.

I suppose this is an excellent opportunity to really examine YAFGC's use of the nude female form for literary effect, and also, the choice of breast contours and angles, and their relationship to the...

Ouch! Okay, okay, hint taken. Um, yay boobies?

This requires close study of a representative sample. I herewith assign Rancourt the task of finding said sample and performing an in depth study.

(Leorin so owes me for this...early anniversary present)

Oh, HRONK! A thousand spontaneous benedictions from the topless benefactor of your choice!

While I'd like to think that my feminine wiles are enough to keep Rancourt's attention, I'm certainly grateful for any steering back my way that he gets! Thank you, LF!



"Hello, me lover..."

HRONK?
This is supposed to be a thread for the long winded and i have to go Google things...
