Not meaning to be completely humourless here, I find this statement very revealing. You seem to resent writers not respecting your story rejections. Maybe we could explore this a bit, if you don't mind. Have you, yourself, ever experienced rejections of submitted works?

Submitted works? Nope, I have never had any of my works rejected. But I am meticulous in my writings, art and private life. By that I mean I cover every detail with exacting precision. Just like I am doing here, right now Bob, selecting every word as if it's meaning meant my life. You must know what this drive is I am speaking of Bob, the desire of perfection. We all have it, just some more than others I suppose.

Don't interpret this incorrectly, I am not saying I am better than anyone else, I just put much more effort into life than most. I rarely make mistakes and on that rare occasion that one occurs, I try to learn from it. Jack appreciates me and is quick to tell me so. Jack and I are kindred spirits for the most part and we see eye to eye on nearly every aspect of life, from which pajamas are most comfortable to closing down the caption competion, we always seem to be on the same page.

Back to the question. I have experienced rejection in my life, just not in the submitted works category. I can probably think of several times I have experienced rejection. Once, I had a blind date and we went to dinner. During the appetizers, the waiter comes to me and says, "I'm sorry sir, we are all out of the escargot." That's the only one I can think of off the top of my head. I'll leave you with this link, it is impotent!

The person pretending to interview Mr Deadwords is not Mr Helium from the Spoof.
Most likely an imposter fooling us all.
I wouldn't post this if I had any doubts.

For those still unconvinced Manny, might you provide some reasons behind your thoughts?

Ya know, this is the part when Fred pulls the mask off the monster and Scooby and the gang says, "Wha? Lagoonman was really Mr. Bailey, the janitor?"

I've been following your forum submissions at the Spoof recently , and you seem like you're running a summer camp. I must say the banter there is so tame and toned down from the 'Spoof forum heyday', it reads almost like a children's forum. No disrespect intended, (I mean it), but what exactly is a "Good Spoof Citizen"?

One of the members here (who shall remain nameless) is a sexually obsessed woman who does her best to resemble a slut. Why? It isn't necessary for a good website? It's so degrading, Jack and I decided that we would offer a site with good Christian values and we would keep it clean of the more clutter (pants) type of content you might find on another spoof site. And FYI folks. I am Helium!

Jack has asked me to deal with the legal and moral applications in the forum. I am taking no chances about getting hauled into court, again. The forum is a tricky monster. Everyone has a damn opinion, but they don't need to say it on my forum. I wish these dopes would just abide by the rules, then maybe I wouldn't need to close it down yet again. Can you understand this Bob?
