Random Rants 0x52: [Obligatory rant about title]

I remember looking for Pokemon fanart on DeviantArt. For some reason, I always managed to find the weird fetish ones where they...uh, "inflated" the Pokemon.

 

Attempt indeed. How many syllables in the 2nd line again?

 

The Timmies near me has a bookcase with coffee bags and tumblers. The shelves have labels. They are poorly capitalized and just generally are woefully put together.

Worst, however, is their proud advertisement of the fact they sell "dark roask Coffee."

 

No matter what you do I still think you're a huge ass.

 

it is uncertain
that I can really do a haiku

The third line's also only correct if you say "TIL" as a single syllable and not 3 letters.

(I'm not actually sure which one you're supposed to do, I've always read it as "T. I. L." not "till")

That's 5-9-4, that's even more wrong!

 

for such a mistake
one has to apologise
one does what one can

 

I noticed this when I went on a Borgias binge-read earlier this year on AO3. There's one author there who specializes in modern-era Borgia stories, and after the third one, I realized that they're formulaic like a Harlequin romance. Some of the sentences could have been copy/pasted from story to story, and the comments on some of them were like this was high literature.

It was mental junk food which was okay at the time, but I wouldn't praise it like the "usual gang" did.

But there was one story there that was more unusual, very good as far as it went... and the author just stopped, without explanation. She did other stories after that, so it's not like she dropped out of writing. Some people are angry, and I don't blame them. It's understandable to lose interest or inspiration for a story, but after a couple of dozen chapters and an established audience, it's really not cool to stop without saying something like "sorry, I'm not feeling the muse anymore with this one, thanks for your support."

 

Really ? Did You put on Your socks, Your sandals and walked down to shop with a bag from biedronka to buy some vodka and pickles ?

 

Rant: people not being active in the Mafia game.

 

Fret not, after tonight, it'll be even less active once they've lynched me, an innocent.

 

Post this in the relevant thread and you will definitely get lynched mate
Plus, iirc we have a triple tie right now Mr Whinie

 

Took a 30-minute nap. Didn't help. Meh.

 

I actually purchase raw vegetables wholesale and preserve them with my own home-researched mixture of water, vinegar, sugar and salt.

I also boil cabbage.

 

During your research did you discover some little known feature that makes the first water in the list different from the water at the end of the list?

 

I am an excellent thread title-writer

 

Now I am 100% convinced You're Polish !

 

Thanks for spotting the mistake. I was tallying votes and things got… out of hand.

Yes! You see, the more you boil it and it stinks then the more of the bad parts that are evaporated. The resulting material can be used for all sorts of edible foodstuffs.

My research on this has led me to believe hope that other brassicæ can be made edible.
