Bad Blog! Bad, bad Blog!

For some reason, I was reading this unnamed person's blog. And I kid you not, one recent entry was perhaps the single worst thing I've ever read in my life. It's a long rambling story that doesn't go anywhere. When I finished it, I could actually hear my brain synapses misfire.

Maybe I missed something. So I went back and re-read the story - assuming that I'd skipped over something while reading and that somehow it was my fault that the story didn't make sense.

Clearly a classic case of the victim blaming himself. Because I read it again and realized that I hadn't misread it. The story was really that bad. It was long, pointless, and the boring end made no sense. Then I got ANGRY - because not only was I subjected to some awful writing, but it was so bad IT MADE ME READ IT TWICE.

Behold the power of bad writing.

In case you're wondering if it's your blog, it's not. But if you know an inept writer wannabe who tells long rambling stories with no point, then yes, it's them.

Anyways, other than bad stuff I'm reading online, nothing to blog about at the moment. Writing, strike-watching, visiting family members for the holidays, wrapping stuff. Wrapping lots and lots of stuff.

Sorry I haven't had more stuff for you this week, so here's some linkage for you. Just because it made me laugh- You Make Bunny Cry
