Alright everybody, listen up.I have something to say. This week/end I would appreciate it if you all could limit the number of post by 2-3 a day. There have been so many recent spam post's that I didnt even notice till 3 pages got added on in under 3 days. Now I understand many of you are dedicated fans who are on topic, but many (including myself) were drifting from the topic.
So from now on, till I can get some crap at my HQ sorted out, you guys need to make these post more on topic, and less spamtastic.
Happy Consumation of Turkey Day.
Edit: cripes, I sound like a moderator, which is german for: babysitter.
then again considering how much I've babysat all of you.....

Hey Poo-man, I'm not on your list. Not even the bad list
Your point being?
“Anax Junius Admiration”How I admire the facets and intricacies
Of your turquoise fusion of crystal and flesh!
Dazzling as resplendent stones of garnet,
Shattered reflections dancing upon the interior of your eyes.
Prismatic globes that pulse with life, do you know the care
With which your Creator carved you?How I admire the segmented shaft
Of your subtle melding of emerald and sapphire!
Lustrous, gleaming in the brilliant rays of the sun,
Your body quivers with vitality.
The slender frailty of your legs cannot
But add to the essence of your elegance.How I admire the delicate gossamer
Of your translucent tissue!
Iridescent and insubstantial, not even the finest silk
Is fit to replace a fragment of your wings.
Humming, murmuring as you weave amongst the reeds—
The chorus of creation billows in the breeze.Oh, Anax junius, how I admire you!
Though oft I have seen you, a fleeting glimpse cannot satisfy.
Oh, Anax junius, the wonder of the common dragonfly!
I think this is the final copy I'm going to send in. I WOULD like to make it longer, but there is a twenty-four line max on it.
My last suggestion might be:
Prismatic globes that pulse with life, do you see the care
With which your Creator carved you?
I say this because I think you're speaking of the dragonfly's eyes, here, so "see" makes both literal and figurative sense in the discrete sentence, given that the eyes are the subject of it. Also, "see" is "know" so the question can still apply to the dragonfly as a whole, as a being.
Sweetypie671 (or something like that) is going on the list. She types horribly and I told her that I thought she was retarded, not a 12-year-old. She PMed me saying that I was a jerk. I PMed her back saying that she was a retard. She PMed me again saying that I was a jerk and she didn't like me. I tried to respond, but it appears she has blocked me.
😆
They don't rock; they jiggle.
Thanks for listing me, Feceman. It helps to salve my wounded feelings now that JM has scratched me from her list.
Nataku, thanks for applauding my criticism. I think criticism is a more valuable thing than creative work itself- because hardly no-one posts helpful suggestions. We're all a good group here, very supportive- that's unusual.
For me, the problem with constructive criticism (i.e., not "OMG TIHS IS TEH BEST TIHNG EVAR!!!!!" or "j00 SUXXORZ N00b LOLOLOLZ!!!!!1111!!!!"😉 is that I need to have a paper copy, preferably double-spaced, that I can write on. Otherwise it's pretty much a no-go 🙂--I just can't "do it" as well as I could otherwise.
That's why I use the copy clipboard when a friend e-mails me a huge hunk of fiction- I just snatch up the words I want, fiddle with them, and paste them back out. It makes me feel old-fashioned, as if the data goes in one side on a punch tape, and I send tape back out off a fresh reel...I wouldn't do that here, however.
The Boss would start repetitively pounding his head on the wall, and I'd be ashamed.
