Gilganixon posted:I read Something Awful. I often find myself skipping through tons of effort posts and shitposts. Typically, the writing sucks. I want recommendations for posts on this forum (or whatever forums I can access) with well-written, coherent stories. I won't post this thread in the Creative Convention forum because I've convinced myself that the majority of the 'experts' there have wildly lovely opinions. What makes me think I'll have better luck in GBS? I dunno. Reply to this thread, idiot. I wrote some bernie sanders fanfic thats actually really good in my own egomaniacal estimation.

Adaptive Systems was the only poster with good writing:quote:I've spent years of my life without a single friend, I've gone months on end without speaking a word to any save cashiers, and when I have been blessed with friends, I've had to watch too many of them, saints all, die in terrible torment never having once been loved. There was Shawna, the first girl who had ever been nice to me, raped by a mentally retarded man in her care, who turned to drink and fell down a flight of basement stairs, splitting open her skull, and yet somehow persisted for an hour or more in a half-dead state, only being found by her fellow tenants when they mistook her death rattle for the mewing of a cat, and went to investigate. And there was Christopher, the unbelievably sweet and kind and optimistic man, never once touched by a member of the opposite sex, Down's afflicted, dying at 35, but seeming so much younger, when the malformed heart he carried with him from the womb one day decided to rip itself apart and kill him. Oh, and Ben, who was horribly abused by his father, and I remember him coming into school, his cheek perforated by five neatly-spaced bleeding holes left from the place that his father had stabbed him with the fork he'd been using to eat his breakfast. Oh, Ben, Ben died unloved; he was a very, very ugly boy; slightly on the heavy side, stupid-looking, horrible acne. He died of a ( I think accidental) heroin overdose, at nineteen. He had never been loved. He had never been kissed. I remember finding him, several hours dead, and calling 911, and waiting outside the apartment, and noticing the imprints of his boots in the snow, left from his late-night return from his illegal job at the local bar, and I remember going completely loving insane, because Ben was lying dead in bed upstairs, and here were his footprints in the snow, and somehow the footprints were still alive to me, and I wanted, I wanted, I don't know what the gently caress I wanted to do, I wanted to loving save the footprints, I wanted to tell the police to surround them with their yellow tape, I wanted to take loving plaster casts of them, and it was so beyond hopelessness, and it was snowing anyway, and Ben's footprints were being filled in by the snow, and it seemed to be a sign that was all we were, snow covered by snow, and I didn't cry, but I? I laughed and snorted, and spit. I couldn't stop spitting and snorting... and Ben was on the gurney, and that was all of him, gone. quote:I shall be utterly truthful in every respect and summarize the existential dilemma presented by one’s first fist fight. Someone made a pdf of his best posts here.

Darth123123 posted:I never understood the interest in that zybourne thing. Maybe I'm dumb. Probably I'm not sure anyone can really explain it to you in a way that makes it funny - you know what happens when you have to explain a joke. To some people that does make it funnier because of the awkardness and ruination of the comedic timing, which can be a source of humor all its own, but if it's not your "thing" then it just falls flat. Zybourne Clock works the same way.... Anyway it seems it was brendle, although I still remember Ingwit as a good writer for probably something else. I don't have archives so I can't verify these threads are still accessible, and I seem to have lost my local copies of the first two, but these should be the links.
