You guys don't have anything on the 25¢ Gay Boi. He has
probably dated most of the races he offends! I don't know if that means he really doesn't know which races of men he's slept with or he doesn't know which groups of people he offends, but either way this is deep and gut-wrenching stuff.
He's right that he's got us talking, but that's really probably the worst thing for a person who clearly has no appreciation for the craft of writing and just wants to blather on about some arbitrary and fuzzy self-imposed goal.
I get navel gazing. I even blogged for a while myself back in the day. The difference between him and me is that I know how to construct sentences that are almost always easily readable. And occasionally even entertaining. I don't mean to suggest that this in any way makes me unique; there are scores of people all over the internet, on this very board, that are clever or entertaining or even just get by how likable they are. Unfortunately at this point Gay Boi is none of these things
I'm sorry this youngish man didn't get to go to college (if that's what he wanted). He has already inferred that there was something going on with him in high school that caused him to only barely slide by and I'm sorry about that, too. Maybe that's a subject he could explore in a future entry, if he's capable for the kind of introspection that sort of writing requires.
If you are choosing the written word as your means of communication with the world - because you feel that what you have to say is so important or interesting or funny or whatever - that you think other people would want to read it, then you should really try to make an at least a half-assed attempt to make it readable.
