Okay, I'm going to get a bit personal here:

I'm an aspiring writer. I want to write fiction, and get paid for it. I want to see stuff with my name on it in book stores and libraries. I like writing, and like to think that I'm pretty good at it.

So when you jokingly compared my narrative sensibilities to George Lucas's (and I think we all know which of his movies you're referencing) I got offended. You might have meant that as a joke, but it's not funny to me. You're not just making fun of my opinion, you're making fun of a core part of who I am.

But hey, you got a chuckle out this, and that's all that really matters, right?

Screw you, you goddamn troll.

Don't worry, truly terrible writers get published all the time.

Mate, take it from someone who's already been where you are now: either develop a thick skin or get good at faking it, because random comments by strangers on the internet is easy mode when it comes to negative criticism.

If you look carefully, throughout countless pieces of historical record, you can find mention or image of a tall, grey haired man, with a preference for bright shirts and cigars. He is, when mentioned, inevitably recorded as a thief, of both valuables and of the beautiful wives of the rich and powerful.

Sully was the third thief at the crucifixion, the Third Thief, The Thief Who Didn't Get Caught.

E: Dunno if this has been mentioned before in the thread, but did you know that Dismas isn't actually a canonized catholic saint? Dudes not even named in the New Testament. You can thank Nicodeemus for that one.
