ROTFL!!!

Is it only me that thinks 'The building is beige, but the shadows make it shadow-color.' is a whole lot worse than a gaping gap?

*feels better* thanks Lu! :D

Well he uses the word gap like twenty more times in the story. But either way, it is very cringe-worthy.

Seriously, we could write the stuffing out of him. :D

Apparently, James Franco has been accepted into Yale's Ph.D. program in English.

I could cry. T_T

WHAT! UGH!

I know... it makes me very sad. Also, the article mentioned that he has a book coming out in the fall.

O_o HOW IS THIS POSSIBLE?

... I actually feel a lot better about myself right now.

Thanks. That literally helped with my writing block.

Shadows are shadow-colored. People die when they are killed.

XDDD That last sentence made me laugh.

The peach peach was just beyond my reach.
It was just as well, for inside was a leech.

Hahaha, yeah, it's from the Captain Obvious tvtrope, but it's kind of famous on its own....

Oh dear... Need to pull out the facepalm icon here...

It was very... well, I'm not totally up to date on all of my literary terms, but going off of my definitions of modern and postmodern, it seemed kind of like a cross between those two. And I really dislike postmodern. Plus it was just nasty...

And God, there were so many similes and metaphors! And they were really disgusting, too! God... seemed very juvenile-thinks-it's-refined to me. *facepalm*

I think it has very little to do with you, and everything to do with Franco's need to try too hard.
