Caltrops - Peter Molyneux's The Movies





	[quote name="Entropy Stew"][quote name="Zseni"][quote name="Entropy Stew"]My coherence is crystalline; it tapers to a single atom, piercing. My incoherence is a laser-guided laser of Manichean oscillation<b><u>;</u></b> the locus of enlightenment. You...talk a lot about anime. -/ES/-[/quote] You should probably enlighten your ass as to the proper usage of the semicolon; I am wounded to see you abuse my favorite punctuation. BUSTED: your ass, for creative misappropriation of the zsenicolon.[/quote] The original clause contained "it is" at the beginning. Sequential edits shortened it to the present state of phrasality without converting the semi to an emdash. I kept the semi because the two sentences were designed around being mirror images of one another, and Incoherence does not shackle grammar. Think of it as a Hieronymous Bosch triptych. Heaven on the left, Hell on the right, and you, Mundane, in the middle. [quote]If you're a laser, it's a bad drag job. Lasers are coherent by definition. Your pleochroic spangles slot not with the laser's characteristic spectral purity. BUSTED: your ass, for misuse of science-y sounding words.[/quote] A locus is also (usually) a curve, which isn't particularly laser-like. The metaphors, while initially appearing sound, were set 180 degrees out of phase. <i>The sentence itself is a Manichean oscillation,</i> and oscillates on another layer when set against the static imagery, subject, and grammar of the first. I give you art, and you nitpick my grammar. Hack. You're going to be the one making sure that all the i's are dotted and t's crossed...IN HELL! -/ES/-[/quote]
