I think I got lost in the context or something... though I have the feeling I should be calling dated references here.

Pushing the envelope makes me happy... perhaps someday I'll find the line between melodrama and fine descriptive writing... must learn to be less tripe...

Stop trying to use $0.25 words that you don't know.

Tripe is a stomach lining meat used often in chinese restaraunts. Tripe can also mean worthless or offensive. I for one do not find your writing worthless, offensive or stomach lining-esque. I believe "Trite" is what you were wanting to say. It means the use of an overused and thereby less than effective metaphor like "You win some, you lose some".

I have no problem with someone using big words in sentences and I have no problem if you are monosyllabic either. Just make sure you know what you are saying. Case in point, Kiro. What is the name of the "punching bag" in the back of your throat? Or should we even get into that...... :D

Don't mind me. It is 6 am and I havent slept yet. Just a bit on edge at the moment....G'night..
 

Oooh, I have something to aim for...I want to be a Rat Bastard GM (tm).

Rat Bastardry:
A philosophy that asserts that a role-playing game's capacity for providing enjoyment can be greatly increased by weaving a complex web of psychological challenges, moral or ethical dilemmas, frequent plot twists, and unforeseen consequences to create a gaming environment with verisimilitude that rises above the mundane with the ultimate aim of creating an atmosphere of awed paranoia for the players.

Time to buckle down.
 


You know... someday I will best you Elementor... and on that day you'll die of a heart attack from the shock... But I swear someday I will best you... someday when you get old and slow... hence the heart attack... :P
