Of course writing has tone.

Tone Down for What?

UNT90 · September 23, 2014

You are kidding, right? All writing has tone.

I guess your response is indicative of why you are not good at it.

Gotta love the passive/aggresive shot at the end.

I think you, and many others, apply your own tone to what I write. It's more a reflection of you than I, especially when you use a tone arguement to take your own little shot at the end.

Again, if you don't like what I write, use the ignore function.

UNT90 · September 23, 2014

Thankfully the bowl committee's opinion counts instead of yours. It doesn't anger me in the least that you look foolish. Actually makes me happy.

Angers you so little that you call me a name in the same sentence in which you say it doesn't anger you.

Lol.

The Internet is funny.

UNT90 · September 24, 2014

People that don't understand their own language are funny. Had I called you a "fool" then I would have been calling you a name. Saying that you "look foolish" means that your actions/words have caused others to look upon you as a fool is a description of said actions or words.

I am happy to call you a nasty name, if that is what you need. Get back to me on that.

Parse much?

And exactly when did this Internet infatuation begin for you, young man.

I like pie. I like pie so much, I think there should be pie for everyone!

Just an observation, then I'll hang up and listen:

Isn't the bolded above the same mechanism you use in just about every post between you and any "liberal" in the cage fighting thread?

What is passive aggressive about it? The fact that you don't understand writing tone means that you aren't going to be good at it. Just an observation. I don't apply any tone that you don't apply yourself, and many others have come to the same conclusion. What is the common denominator here?

Well, you don't think I'm an effective writer, and I don't think you are an effective reader.

And I won't even attempt to use the "everyone is on my side" false argument.

Now tell me, with what inflection did I type those 2 sentences?

Did I say that? I said that you aren't good with tone in your writing. It is impossible to type with inflection because inflection and tone are two different things.

"You can't have any pudding if you don't eat your meat!"

No, what you are really saying is that you don't like the content of my writing, you are just saying it in a really snarky, condescending way.

Ben Gooding · September 24, 2014

How about Dajon Williams though? Predicted stat line at Indiana? I say 14-23 217 yds 2 td 1 int. 10 carries for 54 yds.

"You can't have any pudding if you don't eat your meat!"

Hey, we are having a serious Internet tone argument here. If you can't provide the proper definition, just keep your classic stoner rock quotes to yourself, hippy.

Maybe he just doesn't like you in general?

UNT90 · September 24, 2014

Maybe he just doesn't like you in general?

Or maybe he does? Maybe we have had many pleasant conversations? Maybe even played on the same teams a couple of times in GMG.com events?

Maybe you take the Internet too seriously?

You are adoreable

No, what I am saying is that you get the responses you do, not because of what you say, but how you say it.

flyonthewall · September 24, 2014

But seriously,....."how can you have any pudding if you don't eat your meat?" It fits the dw topic perfectly.

H-towngreen · September 24, 2014

How about Dajon Williams though? Predicted stat line at Indiana? I say 14-23 217 yds 2 td 1 int. 10 carries for 54 yds.

I think that's pretty close. I'll say 17-29 for 189. 12 carries for 74 2tds passing 1int and a costly fumble at the end which costs us the game(a game that we wouldn't be in if not for DJW)
