It would only have been insulting if you'd typoed a comma and a capital T as well. Why you type so slow, Toady?

My typoes can be quite elaborate and grammatically sound.

I find myself making up a lot of Orochimaru's character, since I can't remember squat about him from the manga.

Is he a pedophile? He's supposed to be a pedophile. Probably a rapist. Also effeminate.

Oh yeah, loading the story up with all those things. It's hard to keep the plot moving while I'm expositing about what a rapey effeminate pedophile he is.

The guy does seemed to have groomed a lot of orphans into loyal killing machines. What's up with that? Do we ever see how he does that?

Not that I can recall. The fanon is too powerful. Perhaps the subtext is more truthful than the official canon, if everyone thinks the same thing?

The subtext is inconvenient for my purposes. Must dismiss all ideas that can not be shoehorned into my predetermined narrative.

Did you actually get your writing goal met yesterday?

Shoehorn away.

I didn't for the day, but I'm still above my goal for the month to date. Whatever...

Have you considered increasing your goal, since it's so easy for you? :chick:

...Did you just bird emoji me?

I'm making my goal because it's reasonable! I don't want to increase it, because then November would seem cheapened. This is not NaNoWriMo, so it should have a lighter workload to reflect that. Harumph and marumph.

Maybe this isn't NaNoWriMo, so it should be basically impossible to make NaNoWriMo seem easier. It's an option you should consider.

Lose all your plants yet?

Considering how late I had to stay up last night to get everything written, I may not be doing as great with this word goal as I thought. Le sigh.

Plants live.
