Quoted from KevinLenihan


Officially crossed into idiot. Unless he's not old enough to drive, if so then forgive me.



We forgive you, kevcott.

Quoted from DustinBowcot


I have four children and two dogs, I've also got a business to run that puts food on the table. You may be able to rush about doing whatever you want, but I have to organise things.

I'm also not happy with the rules yet. So calm the fuck down.


I feel sorry for your kids.  And your dogs.

You can call me an idiot all you want, Dustin... don't care...

Best of luck with this "write off" or whatever you two are doing.


Why start shit with me if you're just going to run away the moment I hit back? I don't get it.

All I said was I can't read your scripts because I get frustrated with character and story.

If Silverback was just the same, I'd say it about both of you, but I haven't read much of his stuff yet... if anything at all.

So you basically called me an idiot for not being able to slog through your features.

That's great... but it's also not my fault.  I find your writing boring, big deal.  No reason to shit your G-string and start calling people names.

That's not all you said... you said that I reminded you of Norman Scribbler. It was obviously meant to be derogatory. You denying it just shows how much of a coward you are.

Dustin I have a genuine question for you. I am not attacking you or argument with you, since this is not my fight.

My question is: if you feel as if people here are idiots which is something you have no patience for and that you have established to yourself that you're a true writer, then why are you on this forum? Especially when you sound so busy.

I am not saying that you should leave. I find these quarrels entertaining and look forward to the showdown. I am just curious.


A bad writer, trying to become decent...

Thank you for all who put up with my work and try and help me improve.

Practice will hopefully pay off for my writing.

You guys have got to be kidding. I want each of you (as part of your challenge) to honestly re-read each post that you have made in this thread and in the Ray W thread. Can you read your own posts and not be disgusted at yourselves?

My question is... why is your comprehension so bad that you would read that I called the entire forum, idiots?

There are idiots everywhere. It is my having no patience for them that leads to pointless arguments. There... reiterated. I cannot put it any simpler than that.

And I have established to myself that I am a true writer... what does that mean?

I just remember in another thread you said that if somebody got shaken off their dream of being a writer by negative feedback, then they weren't a true writer to begin with.

And actually you said that you obviously lost the popularity vote. Why? Because there's two people here (other than Silverback) that said something unfavorable about you? Usually popularity means reputation to a larger group of people. And then right after you said the idiots thing.

So, yeah...fuck yourself.

Only people that are posting. Doesn't matter if it's two or ten. That's the popular opinion on display to me.

A real writer cannot be told they are not a writer. I am a writer and have been one since I could write.

Okay there, you've clarified and answered my question. But don't go insulting my comprehension skills, when logically what I inferred from your sentence (from a linguistic standpoint) was valid.

I'd avoid getting personal, guys. It's just an internet forum.

We still haven't chosen the critera for the challenge.

My vote:  A romantic comedy about two gay Nazi guards set in Dachau Concentration camp, circa 1941.

That should be easy enough to write.

I know you were joking...but this would actually be pretty interesting.

And funny enough, if you got like Steve Zaillian or someone on it, it would probably be nominated for an Oscar
