opinion: vaginas are wonderful to play with.

What? You wanted an opinion on what you posted?

I posted this like 20 days ago and no one said anything, was it that bad?

No, its just that (a) the atheist section isn't very active (much to my disappointment) and (b) we often don't respond to things we basically agree with.

I'll have to take your word on the former

OK massage and archemedes...I guess I should have put something more scandalous on here.

I am sorry, I could not get through even the first two sentences. It's not that you were a bad writer or that your question were without merit. I don't know. All I know is that the visual of the one-paragraph deal in your original post hits me like a brick wall -- you know, it's like a wall, full of bricks, but their densely placed visual makes every brick disappear. Similarly, your text is full of ideas, full of similarly weighing thoughts, but they, all together like that, without giving your reader some help in catching his breath, so to speak, by paragraphing, makes it into a wall of ideas indistinguishable from each other. If one tries to make out the different things, then, like your eyes would water and go googley if you were to count the bricks in a real brick wall, one's mind waters and goes googley after the first two sentences.

Try to make your text more readable, more appetizing to the reader. There is laziness, true, on the part of the reader, but there is also the packaging that sells the story. My advice is to please brush up on your style, both visual and contextual, and more people will read you.

Another helpful hint in order is to make your sentences varied -- long ones, short ones, complex ones, simple ones, listing ones, adjectivised ones.

Buying "Elements of Style" by Funk and Wagnall (I am not sure of the spelling or even if the names are right) would be a good investment if you are planning to write a great deal more in the future.

I don't mean to put you down, and I hope I have not.

I don't mean to take the wind out of your sail.

I just mean to help you with telling how one can improve his chances of being read and his ideas responded to.

Yeah. Whatza matter wit you?

I lame like that sometimes...

I'm not up to date on the faux-pas of thread posting, so I consider it a lesson learned.

i often can't tell when people are joking - i don't think you committed a faux pas at all, and there was nothing 'wrong' with your first post above; i think wux was just giving his personal answer to your later question, and in doing so gave good advice for getting a better response from people in the future. posting an op like yours is just fine, but you will lose some people.

sometimes being lost is fun...

It really makes life worth living,doesn't it?

worked for Doctor Who for years...

If you do these things this way, say these things that way, then you've got it made, you're "saved"? And that's what I'm expected to believe, that there is no other purpose for my life and my choices.
