Rant Time
Let me build a situation here and see if the contradiction is as clear to all as it is to me.
Week one: We read and write an essay on George Orwell's "Politics and the English Language". One of his main complaints was wordiness, as in using fancy words when simpler ones could be used and using lots of words when fewer would do the job.
Week three: Write a 750 word essay comparing "Finding Fish" the book to the movie.
Hello? I said what I wanted to say in 350 words. Now I'm just adding non-nutrient filler.
Wordiness to wit!
