TBH I try to read all your ****, really I do, but sometimes I just gotta skim. Nothing against your writing style -- I'd prefer long winded enthusiasm to concise robotism any day -- I just have the attention span of a retarded gnat.

same here. sometimes i'll start reading a journal entry, take a break, and then come back later to finish it. still the most enjoyable and engaging writing on the site though.

Thanks, gents! I have a bit of exciting member journal news for you.

I'm putting together a second member journal with much shorter entries. These will be tales of retail/corporate hell as related by a well-spoken Victorian gentleman who's diary entries share tales of his experiences with suburbanite white gangsta coworkers, white supremest bosses, and tales of tech support assistance he's given to elderly technophobic employees.

The juxtaposition of my dramatic, flowery, and formal speech with their stupefying ignorance should make for an entertaining read. I've got a stockpile of idiotic interactions saved from the last 10 years of hell, so I should have a steady flow of new content each week.

I'll give it a go and see how it works out.
