If you like to write so much, why don't you start contributing front page articles? Ever think of that?

    As a person that has, in my time, been known to say a thing or two about a thing or two--and maybe, just maybe--make a point and go back over it, from one side to another just to kind of flesh out the idea, I think it's dawned on me over the years that maybe my writing style would--as you suggest--be the kind of thing that most people would love to read on the front page of this website. So, you know, to repeat, I have definitely thought about it, especially while I'm posting (Fuck Miley Cyrus, by the way, just wanted to say that so everyone is clear where I stand with respect to Cyley Myrus--F HIM!), and I do think about that kind of thing when I poAst.

    Still, It has also dawned on me when I go back and read my posts or Tequilla's poasts that really, they are nothing special and generally just overly interested in setting up poonts that everyone gets the context (or really doesn't give a shit about) anyway. In many ways, it's like a movie with a ton of exposition (those movies I actually tend to like, because I hate having to figure shit out by myself when I paid $13 for a movie--by the way, even though it looks like it sucks, that Dracula Rewind movie or whatever the fuck it is looks pretty tempting--I guess I'm just in the spirit this year) or a porn that takes a long time to get to the part where they fuck.

    In reality, several times I've re-read my poasts and thought, "Dennis--the preview button is there for a reason and you should use it to make sure you're not just polluting this temple of thought unnecessarily," but, without exception, the next time I poast I just kind of say, "F it" and let 'er rip, because really, I pay my $10 a month like everyone else and I should be able to say what I want and really, if you don't like it, fucking give me a downvote (or a troll or whatever) and be done with the whole fucking thing. I mean, sometimes they really meander and--while the spelling is usually pretty damn good--the punctuation (over or under-use thereof) and the massive digressions and seemingly never-ending parentheticals are, well they're my right as a poaster, but as a fucking feature article writer? That shit just--and I say this sincerely--will not fucking fly.

    Also, I just don't really have time.

    Does that make sense?

    No

    We don't need no fast-buck, lame-duck profits for fun.
    Quick trick plans, take the money and run.
    We need long-term, slow-burn getting it done
    and some straight-talking, hard working sons of a gun!
