Of comment on Dusty's Monologue:

Its like reading something I wrote two or three years ago...A lot of hot air surrounding a couple of shiny gems of truth...something that I might write and then tease apart to explore language, writing styles and meaning.

 

So my first thought is that someone has spent far too long thinking about something, choosing the right vocabulary to express such a specific meaning that the meaning is lost.

Though, I have to say that I would never have included the part about the snake oil salesmen...It undercuts your argument by trying to smear Arch, showing the 'hippy' to be just as manipulative as this Arch. The obvouisness of that, even to the most casual reader really damages the illusion that this person is supposed to be be fighting oppression...it sounds more like they are a rival politian, laying into someone at an election drive.

And the passage seems to have been written over some length of time, and since it is out of chronological order it gives the impression that whoever the writer is, they are somewhat insane...which, again, undercuts the argument.

This is because Arch seems to have occupied a number of roles, roles which contradict each other...doubtlessly this is intended to show how devious Arch is, but the actual effect is to have the reader question the sanity of the author.

 

 

I am not a particular fan of the piece though, the hot air is too much and the gems too small, and, as stated, contradictory. If it was a work of art it would consist of a blank canvas with the words 'Perspicacious 'Eggplant' 'Dictionary' and 'America'...The words are intereting, but there is no obvouis connection between then...and without those connections they are what they are, and putting them together only draws attention to that.

 

Its only my opinion, and I don't think you should give up, but I think you should try to work more on the meaning and writing style, than the language.

Well I knew you wouldn't agree. I know how you hate facing facts.

Any comments/compliments/hate mail?

It looks interesting, though I wish I knew what it was from. Needs more text too. Idk, that's just my opinion though. I like text in a sig lol. But what it really comes down to is: Do you like it? :P

I'm not sure where it exactly comes from. I just got it from Google Images by searching "future city".

 

I guess it's kind of bland, but I usually like to keep things simple. It's easier on the eyes for me, which is why the text is slightly translucent (makes it so the picture is the first thing I see, before the text).

 

Do you like it?

 

I guess. It's a bit random, but it's also very simple and easy on my eyes, which are major pluses in my book. ;)

I guess it's kinda my fault, me and my driving lessons and cabin trips.

Get up in front of your class, say "Zut!" then sit back down. When the teacher tells you to quit kidding around and take your exam, shout "Jamais!" defiantly and cross your arms and poke out your bottom lip.

 

To be honest, there's always Google Translator. If you're worried about not knowing what to say, type up your speech and translate to French, study the grammar by looking at the translated text, then try to memorize parts of it. It would help, but it's not entirely honest. Oh, and here's a tip, since English is more related to French than Norwegian is, you should translate English to French in order to make it more accurate.

Oral exam, you know, using two days to prepare a presentation then presenting it to a censor and a teacher the third.

 

Anyways I'm more leaning towards causing temporary brain damage to myself, rendering me unable to have it.

It's bloody French. It's not nearly as complicated as English and Norwegian are. The only particularly difficult thing about it is pronouncing the words since it's awkward to do so if you speak a Germanic language.

 

Just do the Google Translator trick and call it a lesson. Hell, memorize the translated speech.

 

Also, do you play Runescape? If you do, go play in the French language worlds from now on, at least until you pick up on vocabulary and grammar. :thumbup:

It's not the French part that is too hard, it's the fact that it has to be a presentation to which I cannot read directly from a manuscript, though it being in French doesn't help either.

 

Also my pronounciation is pas mal.

Yes. The file size was about 90kb too big.

 

Anyway, someone decreased the size for me, so it's all good.
