[Churro]

getting revenge

[deathinreverie]

sounds about right. what’s the mental dude doing there tho?

[Churro]

He’s the friend of the bride’s brother.

[deathinreverie]

[Churro]

So, I’m sitting here like:

Writing this because it’s so stupid.

It’\s set in 2006 as well.

OMG, literally 100 plus comments since I last looked in here.

there goes the thought of reading it on Wattpad I might just buy it tho if I can convince my parents to build/buy another bookcase xD

I am no longer on Wattpad anyway lol It is available at most retailers online, eBook and paperback. I get it. I just reorganized my whole living room and all of my books and am still basically out of bookshelf space. I even hung another shelf up on the wall. The struggle is real

Most of my books are still in storage. I don’t even know what of it I’ll keep, at this point. Whatever is out, my kids think are worth walking on–I catch them taking them down and making bridges all the time. 5 and under, man.

Ohh, that reminds me of so many awful fencing scenes in different movies and things. I was cringing. They always involve way too much swinging and random slicing and ATROCIOUS footwork Oh my goodness. So yes, I was very glad when I saw that you did your research. xD Yup, it seems like some of it just relies on luck, haha.

I legit thought the iCarly scene was so good. And then I revisited it ten years later and I was like “how the hell did I see this as good?” there were just so many things wrong with it, but pre-teen me just didn’t notice them

That I don’t get. Not that I watch fencing, but that there’s too much precision to just take that up without some research, if I was to write it. I find generic fight scenes are badly done, as it is, in too many cases.

@FourcedowErsert

@stella_vigo

That’s why I plan to introduce my future kids to quality literature from a young age. They’ll be less likely to enjoy trash after reading something good.

Now that’s a good way of doing things. Good for you. xD As for me, I don’t think I’ll ever have kids, haha.

Never say never—don’t let people pressure you into them, mind you. But I had my 1st at 34. My father JUST remarried and when he settles down, first thing they are doing is adopting a child. He’s in his early 60s. (She’s about 2 years younger than my nearly 40?) But then, she’s in a culture where men may not have kids until they are 50ish, so nothing abnormal there, for her.

Also, try doing prose poetry for practice. I feel like that would help develop it. Yes, that combination would definitely work. You’re good at those. Play to your strengths. xD

Oh I’ve looked up prose poetry, and I was intimidated.

I was published in a statewide anthology for a poem I wrote in the 4th grade. I can literally say I peaked in poetry that young because the only thing I can write now worth a damn is limmericks. I did write a poem for a brothel (short ballad), in a book–as in the MC did it–but she’s laughing at it as she writes it because SHE finds it awful.

@Churro

That’s the only pussy I’m gonna eat

@FourcedowErsert

Yeah, a friend on wattpad actually recommended it to me. He was like, warning, it might contain a lot of Catholic references and symbols, but I was like, that sounds intriguing and I don’t mind at all, and I read it and IT WAS BETTER THAN I EXPECTED.

Ooh, now you’re making me feel like reading it

Wait, by religious references, would you consider them blasphemous or not? Because if they are, I won’t be keen on reading them; they’re a touchy subject for me that’s actually why I refuse to read Dan Brown’s books.

I’m curious. Define blasphemous because every church forum I’ve been in, no one has a consistent idea of what they figure is blaspheming.

@LaviniaThompson

Oye I was a teenager when Criminal Minds started.

24. I watched a smattering of it through the years. Not the type of show I get to watch now, with babies up mybackside all the time. lol

@Churro

Do you ever write something so ridiculous it works?

That’s the whole point of some satire franchises, like Terry Pratchett. I do, on occasion, put something out that comes close to that. (Referencing above, where I mention that dang poem.)

But yeah, anything wedding crashing is rediculous, by the whole theme. Some TRUE stories about that type of behavior are rediculous.

@Churro

I keep callimng my characters mentally the wrong name.

I mispronounce mine. Hooked on Phonics never worked for me.

[Churro]

@J.L.O

I mispronounce mine. Hooked on Phonics never worked for me.

His name was Zander Soto but it ended up Alexander for some reason.

@deathinreverie I know right? Thanks. I need help in every way haha.

[J.L.O]

Zander is short for Alexander.

[Churro]

I know that. But now I dunno which version I like best.

[stella_vigo]

@J.L.O

Define blasphemous because every church forum I’ve been in, no one has a consistent idea of what they figure is blaspheming.

When they speak of something religious in a profane manner or raise a concept that does not align with the true set of beliefs.

[J.L.O]

Well, the 1st is at least straightforward. The 2nd one is a bit harder–from sect to sect, there’s things that are not true to the beliefs from one to the next. One of the oldest examples is Gnosticism (of which there are something like 3 waves, only 1 in the NT) or the Calvinism/ Arminianism divide.

That and I find Jesuits tend to put out a ton of stuff out of alignment with the Catholic church. Enough so that common Catholics complain about them pretty chronically–to the point where I’m more chronically skipping over whole conversations as not being novel. lol

So, I think some of the more subtle blasphemies will be hard for “an outsider” to point out.

But yeah, the guy you mentioned earlier is pretty universally seen as a REALLY bad theologian.
