The Long Road

It has been conveyed to my consideration that one member of my groups is a unbearably horrendous writer. Residing in an abode filled with snobby, above-par writers it is unproblematic, indeed even elating and heart-warming, to ridicule such poor, flowery writing where all content is immersed under an immeasurable onslaught of impenetrable prose. If brevity is truly the soul of wit then this particular individual is about as witty as a retarded ox.

Though I may make many valiant efforts throughout my existence, I would never be able to conjure up golden phrases such as these:

“Our discourse for our Entrepreneurship project began with great expectations, motivation, and interpersonal synthesis to conjure up a tangible and lucrative idea.”

“Consequently, a pragmatic technique followed suit and now we were able to bring forth an innovation—this new invention—to the “void.” Time was not an issue, as brainstorming lead to interaction and enlightened participation.”

To even come close to his style, as I am faithfully attempting here, I have had to use the Thesaurus for approximately each and every word. It is not inconceivable to me that I am capable of rewriting the entire 851-word dissertation into two or three paragraphs. For more wonderful and fantastic examples of this prose contact me for the text in its complete and unadulterated beauty!

Hey Thai! Are you saying you know who is an Ox? That would explain sooooooooooooooooooooooo much.

Unfortunately, I have neither the time nor skill to utilize the thesaurus to its maximum capacity.
But here's a quote that I will live by in an effort to not produce offspring similar to person forementioned:

If you drink, don't park. Accidents cause people.
