[B U R D E N]

Honestly I kind of like doin my own thing in some ways as far as my writing. I know people are big on wordplay going both ways, which I am too but some times I'm not going for that. Example - the Produce bar. I was just going for a big picture idea as in things at a store, produce being one of them. Then my set up of 'Looking for a meal' & leaving w that chicken. I just do things a little different. I get that it could have been executed better & all that but I think you sometimes don't consider other people's way of writing, you just base everything off of how YOU would write it & that's not a good look imo. Not everyone should have to sound like you for you to think it's a good bar, nahmean? You may not think so but there is a big difference in what I can write & what an amateur on here can.

Working close shifts - back to back shifts, close together.
A myth can be a person or thing, it's not only just a story/folk tale

Idk man, I guess we see things differently & that's fine. We obviously have 2 completely different writing styles.

I think you overlook things that people write because it's not written in your style, so because of that you're quick to downgrade what they're capable of.

You've got me there. I have a very specific idea of how bars should (in most cases) be written, and if someone deviates from that style in a battle, I feel that I have no choice but to rip into that if I vote on that battle.

But on the other hand... if you vote on something, you have to have some sort of quality standards. I can't just say that everything which is kind of clever or aggressive is acceptable. If that leads other people to see me as a rigid little ice-bitch who tries to force everything into the same box, then so be it.

And since nobody else has asked you, I guess I will.

I dont know who SHODAN is 'n cant speak on his voting history. However, those lines were incoherent 'n stretched out. Id give them 6s.

AND that avys funny as hell. God bless Westboro Baptist Church lol What the fuck does this have to do with his votes anyway?

Aren't you like a week into the site? Your opinion on quality of bars is irrelevant yo. Just being honest.

Just because I'm able to think of more than 2 sets of multis for a bar, doesn't make it stretched out.

Edit: I haven’t read @Shodans defence yet so don’t bash my first response.

It's more of an observation than a complaint, I mean the dude voted FOR ME in the battle I'm speaking 'bout.

Its stretched when there was an opportunity to convey the same message with multis yet less wording 'n it comes off unnatural
