newsmike Posted August 17, 2022 Share Posted August 17, 2022 (edited) I'm starting to notice a slight competition between my two dear friends @smashradio and @damooch916 in the area of thesaurus writin', flowery storytellin' and 20,000 word, fancy pants memoir with a touch of a "who is John Galt?" twist, though told with a Steinbeck sort of vibe tipping its hat to 1960's narrative in the voice of Norman Mailer in "The New Yorker." I remain on the sidelines as such: Edited August 17, 2022 by newsmike 3 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
damooch916 Posted August 18, 2022 Share Posted August 18, 2022 (edited) Totally different. He deals in factual, punctual, genuine guidance and steady observation with touches of human whimsy. I deal in the satirical, in parody and surrealistic perversity with a touch of misguided Lynchian absurdity. We don’t overlap, so it’s fairly complementary and there’s room for both. Edit: I see plenty of people veer wildly (and poorly) into my lane. @smashradio isn’t one of them. Personally I think his observations, as different from mine as they are, make for top notch content. I don’t see us doing the same shtick at all and I think we’re secretly in the same club. FYI you’re in that club too. We’ll mail your button.

So, what you're saying is that you "walk tall and carry a big shtick"? 5 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Smash is the guy you call when you need to build the house. Mike is the guy you call when you need the house builders whipped into shape. Frank is the guy you call when you want to see the homes of the future. Jon is the guy you call when you want instructions on what to avoid while building houses. And I’m the guy you call when the house has gone Gomorrah and you need it torched without survivors. Plus, I replaced your home with a rabbit hole. Also, merry unbirthday to you. 5 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
