It's Halloween! Tell us your ghost stories.

[Scott Free]

By no means do I think of you as a bully. So, please don't think so. I just had an idea for a storyline, and when it came to the role of antagonist, I thought you'd be a good fit. Although, your right about a lot things, I disagree on a few. As the main character in the story, my antagonist needed to have some ideological opposites. Next, the antagonist in my story needed to have me nearly defeated and totally submitted:

Oh good. There must be some element of that in me or you wouldn't have found it such a good match, nevertheless, I'm glad it was mostly art and not mostly criticism.

And it just so happens that your avatar is mesmerizing. Is that what you really look like?

No.

In the end, I had a good feeling you'd be cool. Besides, the whole point is just for fun!

I really enjoyed it.

Well, I notice and read a lot of your posts on various topics. Your posts are really well written. Your flavor of humor is awesome. You've made me laugh several times. Other times you've made me stop and think. You've shed light from a fresh perspective on some topics for me, and yet at other times, I found myself in complete disagreement. (Being in disagreement is good, because it challenges one to test themselves.. How strong is my case for "whatever" topic? Can I rise to the challenge and present a solid argument?)

So, after I formed the bones of my story in my head, I got the idea of my angle(using other forum members names). I'm sure a smile came across my face when I thought "I should take a friendly jab at Scott...":smile:

All in all, I definitely don't consider you a bully. In fact, I admire you. I tried to use a little allegory and symbolism in my story. i.e. rise to the challenge and debate.....I could go on, but I don't want to bore you. Everyone seemed to like it though. I may attempt another short story one day.....that was fun......

nevertheless, I'm glad it was mostly art and not mostly criticism.

I don't criticize....I believe in debating. Because in debating, you need to bring solid arguments, objections, evidence......

No.

:lol: I was just fooling around when I asked you that....But seriously, your avatar is wicked cool! He's not as handsome as yours truly.......but he's still pretty cool....

I really enjoyed it.

Thank you very much for taking the time to read it. That makes it all the worth while. And again, thanx for being a good sport!

Very kind words but unfortunately I don't handle compliments well. I appreciate them for sure but I don't know how to respond. Sorry.

 

[Vanni Fucci]

Relax... it's not like I'm coming down with a case of erotomania. And I don't have Jesus germs. Hmmmm...perhaps you thrive on the ideological battles....
