As a regular consumer of tales of miscommunication, mistreatment and mishap in a certain online community, I have discovered the presence of a duo fashioning themselves from everything to Lord Alfred to Edgar Allen to U.S. presidents.
These would-be scribes take a unique thesauric approach to their manner of speak. They turn the mundane into the convoluted, the straightforward to the oblique, the clear to the nebulous. Though appreciation of their musings has not been realized, hostility and indifference has amongst the denizens of the community.
The task for this couple will be to lessen the stress on the overloaded sentences by sacrificing descriptive value in exchange for a more lean linear message.
I wish them fortune in their future endeavors. —T-Rex and Triceratops

    Your self-abuse is not a sin in the eyes of your Father. Did He not endow you with a body able to know pleasure? Then how could He condemn you for its worship?
