URINALS DON'T PUBLISH
Not wishing to sound a scold, UD once again reminds everyone, including Anne Rice, to mind their similes as well as their metaphors: "Your stupid, arrogant assumptions about me and what I am doing are slander. You have used the site as if it were a public urinal to publish falsehood and lies." [Anne Rice, on Amazon.com, in response to negative reviews by Amazon readers of her latest book, Blood Canticle.] [ps: One way to rewrite the sentence would be: "Your stupid, arrogant assumptions about me and what I am doing are slander. You have used the site as if it were a public urinal to splatter falsehood and lies."] |
