Hate Mail

This blog is not written for people who choose to be stupid and choose to be ignorant while insisting that they are brilliant and informed.   I don't write for the kind of people who frequent Duncan's blog after about 2008.  If I wanted to write for them I'd write it in rebus using emojis and monosyllables.

    And if you did, it would be more coherent and less banal than what you normally post. I say go for it.

    1. Stupy, I announced that I didn't write for your grade level of achievement, declining as that ever seems to be.

      People who can read don't seem to have any trouble understanding what I mean, which is why the Eschaton crowd doesn't come here much.

      Duncan really sells himself too short by maintaining that blog, he might be able to pile some tinder on and rekindle his talent, he might even be able to do something with it but not if he doesn't start soon. The 40s is the start of that not so long slide into old age. It goes past in the twinkling of an eye.

  2. Remind me again how old you are, Sparkles?

    And how come you've never learned how to write after all those years?

    1. How did you manage to turn 70 without knowing how to think?

      As I said, people who read don't seem to have any trouble reading what I write. And I've never claimed to be a writer. Actually, when I wrote papers in college my teachers thought they were quite good. I had one published in a professional journal when I was in grad school, they didn't edit it, much. Only, I wasn't interested in pursuing the academic side of music, I wanted to do it.

  3. "I've never claimed to be a writer. "

    And I think the world knows why.

    1. Because, unlike you, I'm honest, obviously.

      As I recall NY Mary said she liked my writing once. And Echidne liked it enough to ask me to write for her blog and she's one of the best writers among those who frequented Eschaton but who went on to start their own blogs. Now, Echidne, she can write.

    1. First you demand my picture, then you demand my age. You going to ask my weight next? Not much but I can still whip your flabby city-boy ass.

  5. "people who read don't seem to have any trouble reading what I write. "

    How many of those people actually exist?

    1. About 800 most days, who must be reading what I write as I write something, unlike Duncan who gave up because his devoted blog community didn't read what he wrote.

  6. Photo. Age.

    Otherwise, shut the fuck up about other people's personal histories.

    1. I think you must be confusing this with your dating site "Geezer's Last Gasp."

    1. Probably younger than you, I've got more than a brain stem still functioning.

      Maybe you can start your own dating site for people in your milieu, "Hinder".

    1. Oh, now I understand. Not only have you started talking to yourself, believing you're talking to someone else, you've forgotten your age.

      Whoever has custody of Steve, you should paint the floor outside his bedroom black so he'll think it's a hole and he won't wander at night. And make sure he doesn't have his credit card while you let him surf the web.

  9. How old are you, shithead?

    Seriously -- you're calling other people geezers. I know approximately how old you are, and you're a geezer -- but please. Admit it. Or fuck off.
