Frankly, my dear, no one gives a shit.

(Added in) But once again this guy has managed to sidetrack a good thread, and I'm as guilty as anyone else of encouraging him. Maybe we have to swear a blood oath to ignore him.

I was attempting to comment on the difficulty of writing in such a stanza, but if you really think I'm that much of a troll, I won't bother responding again. Evidently, some of you despise me.

Yeah, as soon as we saw your name we automatically decided to give you a hard time for no reason whatsoever.

But don't worry. As I recall, you were going to give up writing altogether because you couldn't be better than Shakespeare, so what's the point? Maybe you were on the right track with that idea.

N. Matheson,

Yeah, your contribution does seem a little self-involved, and not relevant to the thread, and a bit oblivious to your surroundings; but you don't have to stick around and tolerate being treated like dirt.
