Elayne:
CasinoPete never stated that he thought the characters or "meaning" of the book were what he liked about them. He even stated that the style of writing was not why he liked it. This is why he insists that you misunderstand his argument. You posed an argument against the writing style once he had clearly stated that he himself saw nothing special about it. This may be the reason for his evident frustration.

CasinoPete:
Not only are you being overly belligerent, but you are also determinedly avoiding the question as to why you so enjoyed "Portrait...". You have belittled other people's preferences while giving them no room for retaliation, merely stating that they don't get your point. Of course in an ideal world people would defend their own viewpoints rather than seeking ways to attack others but, sadly, this is the GL. The least you could do is allow room for revenge.

WordCross:
Honorable as your intentions are, your personal attack was uncalled for. It should, however, get you some brownie points with the people who matter.
As you were.

I took a crap this morning. It was fecking brilliant. It wasnt about the splashing sound it made, or what it looked like or how it smelled afterwards.

It was just fecking brilliant.
Words of wisdom, my friend. It didn't smell the strongest, or splash the loudest, or look the most impressive. But it felt really good, didn't it, Internet Stranger? That crap was just what your lower bowel needed.

When a book is appreciated for what it means to the individual, who am I to judge? Who, for that matter, are Elayne or CasinoPete to judge one another? After all, aren't all books like crap in one way or another? If Elayne likes her crap to come out nice and easy, and CasinoPete likes to spend a bit longer taking a more difficult crap, and ponder it deeply, then who are any of us to deprive them of their enjoyment of their digestive functions?

In conclusion, you are all full of crap.

Not me! I was thoroughly cleaned out.

I also want to hear about how this antipete takes his crap too.
