    There should be a rule about how long you can post.

    Well actually there is. I think it's about 10000 characters or something. It's not long enough for the entire lyrics of Alice's Restaurant, I know that much.

    I really mena that there should be a rule of thumb.

    But damn, I hate it when someone writes a whole page in one stupid post. I never read anything on here that takes more than a minute.

    There. That's my rant. I could be wrong.

    i totally agree, anyone who posts long posts should be shot. if your interested, this is the first chapter of a book im writing

    Chapter 1 "Dramatic Classical"





    Spencer, a teenage boy, around 15 or so, sits in his room, a poster with the peace sign above him, a realistic glass spider in front of him, and two instruments to his left. They are an electric guitar and an electric bass.

    He held the guitar, playing anything he could, a tune he learned, or he is trying to learn, or just something to get the sound out. It was painted completely black, the only other colors being the white pick guard, the tan wood neck and the metallic strings of course. It was small, but held the fury and gentle melodies of a thousand voices. He felt the need to name it, because of outside influence, but made sure he didn’t rush it. He called it Tigerbeam, a name he often used for his favorite things, an online handle or a character in a story here and there.

    Another time he held the bass, for much longer though. He was astounded by its grandness. While It looked more menacing than the guitar, with its size and black sunburst, it was much less renowned than the guitar, playing a much subtler role, however prevalent it is. He stared at the large orange abyss on the back for an hour, like a soul being dragged to hell watching the infinite fire surrounded by the high walls of Hell.

    While they had their differences, they were similar, whether it be their white pickguards, tan wood, or metallic strings. Or their similarity could be in their tone, which is the same, albeit an octave lower with the Bass, somewhere dank, yet often filled with more life than the high tones of the guitar. Both are classified as string instruments and are often used in conjunction. Somehow the reflection of one on the other makes more of an impact than a single one.

    Anyway, this is not truly a story of a guitar and a bass, the titles says it’s about The Guitar And The Bass, The big ones, the total reflection of all things omni, all things pan, all things all. That’s right, I’m talking about the big poobas, those holy unholy bastards that cause everything that goes down, Jake and Elwood. Let it begin.

    ------------------------------------------------

    There is a small store somewhere in New York. It has the name Moonlight Caf
    é, and is next to a starbucks. It has a Mexican theme, but smells of the book store, Borders, and has a comfortable silence, where there are few people, but it doesn’t seem empty, and when they talk it only goes far enough for the intended party to hear. The food there is neither greasy nor dry, but that is not its charm. The bathroom is almost unnoticed, practically hidden, and no one seems to need it. The temperature is always, in a word, cool. This meaning both the temperature itself and the way it is maintained, just a calm cool, don’t know how, don’t need to.

    One day two men walk in, both in black suites with black sunglasses and black hats. One is calm and cool, swift and determined, but calm and smooth. The other was just freaked out sweating and pissed off.

    "What the hell was that back there! They could have shot us where we stood if it weren’t for My golden tongue" said the chubby sweating man.

    "One coke please," said the tall calm man. "And its silver tongue, besides, you saw what happened back there, I had to." remarked the lost soul as he wrapped his fingers that had letters written on them around the coke.

    "Just because one ignorant remarked on the unnatural existence of homosexual doesn’t mean you have to lecture him about it and proceed to strangle him." replied the short stout soul.

    "I did that for dramatic effect, and it worked didn’t it?"

    "On an ignorant soul like that? He’ll be back to normal by supper, cept with more to simplify into ignorant abyss."

    "Alright, maybe it was for self-satisfaction, but just the very falseness and over-simplification of what he said pissed me off. Unnatural, how can anything truly be unnatural, what, just because it isn’t thought of as a perfect stereotype of natural it isn’t so. Everything comes from nature, whether it be directly or indirectly"

    "Alright, I’ll play devils advocate"

    "HAHA!"

    "Yeah, yeah, have your laughs, but back to the point. What is natural is defined by many as something not made by mankind. Homosexuality is nothing but a figment of imagination, and was designed to enrage as a sin."

    "Wow, you’re good, I barely stopped myself from punching you right there"

    "Thank you"

    The two men seemed to be drawing the attention of the few workers and other customers, but they were careful not to appear to be listening.

    "Anyway," said the tall man, "Even if it is unnatural, when did that become divine law"

    "Uh.."

    "Oh, right, but even you don’t follow that anymore, all the ideas of right and wrong just became too confusing when they reached the limits of the imagination, incidently making the limits unreachable. Even the idea of sin has become so complex and in such a gray area that it isn’t even gray anymore."

    "Well even a fool has to admit that the bright white light separated into all the colors that made it"

    "And quite beautifully so"

    Sirens wail in the background, and the two men get up and leave, the taller as cool as ever, and the stout one sweating as nervously as ever.

    What's the big deal? No one posts really long posts anyways. I generally post long(er) posts. Someone give an example of a "long" post.
