An Open Letter to a Guy Who Wrote Too Much about Cicero
Dear Mr. Verbosity,
While your insights are no doubt fascinating, and your adoration of Cicero so fervent that I feel half a voyeur reading your discussion of him, your paragraphs should not be three pages long on average. Seriously. You and Mr. "I Can Too Write a Seven-Page Footnote!" need to get together for brunch or something. Except you're both dead now, so it would be zombie brunch. With zombie watercress sandwiches. "Chlooooroplasts," moan the zombie watercress.
With slight irritation,
A Mucus-Stuffed Proofer
P.S. You are not too good for "ae." Pasting in "æ" gets old after a while.
P.P.S. Just because the subject is really long doesn't mean you should put a comma between it and the verb.
P.P.P.S. "Resident Evil: The Brunching Hour" will be released for the PS2 and Gamecube in summer 2005.
