I really fucking want to fucking like that blog, but the posts are too fucking long and I fucking swear Drew is just trying to fucking boost his fucking word count by cheapening the fucking language. Otherwise, fucking great writer. Your fucking thoughts?

I’d fucking like the blog if it weren’t for some unnamed writers trying to push their inane fucking hobby. Also, I can’t for the life of me determine the difference between the concourse and adequate man.

Reading it gives me an ego boost because I already know most of the stuff and so that makes me adequate.

Take that high school guidance counselor!

Daddy blogs are the worst blogs.

I agree 100%. This is why I read the first paragraph, a random one in the middle, the last one, then the first two or three comments to get the gist of what is happening.

Foxtrot Alpha is the same way. I came here to read an article, not a book.

Solid advice for most of life, really.

I give FA a pass because it’s chock full of researched and cited material, and the editorial/opinion is pretty clear (I'm speaking for Tyler Rogoway, gone but not forgotten). It's pretty newsworthy for its topics and subject matter, unlike so many other random, purely opinion-based Gawker sites.

Read a couple of his posts once. Those are neurons I’ll never get back. I won’t make that mistake again.

The recent “how to break up with someone” was impossible for me to get through. It’s not one of life’s great puzzles, people. If you’re unhappy, leave. Also had a large chunk how to spare the other person’s feelings, and to avoid sharing your future exploits on social media because they might see it. Well if you’re broken up who the fuck cares who sees what or who thinks what.

My comment should have been in quotes because it was actually said.

High school soccer team long distance run. Coach was with us and yelled at someone for swearing so kid in front turns around and starts running backwards to yell at the kid at the end of the group.

Coach didn’t approve but our goalie almost tripped while laughing.

Too much effort for simple problems

Like Elton Brown with cooking

Great if you have the time, patience, and equipment

Same with Albert over on Food Spin. He has some good recipes (I’ve tried a few), but good god man, does it take a fucking novel to explain it? His abridged versions are awesome though.

I don’t fucking mind some fucking long articles, and I like some fucking humor, but there fucking well needs to be some goddamn substance, and some of their shit is pretty fucked, or is fucking pointless. I fucking like that fuck Magary when he’s writing about parenthood and fucking sportsball, that’s the shit.

I’m not averse to some cursing, though I dare say it does indeed give the reader the impression of a petulant teenager having written the piece. I dare say they could do with less, as it’s quite unprofessional for one who calls oneself an “author” to rely so heavily upon the dregs of our fine language.

Fuckity fuck, asswipe shit.

To me, all profanity should be reserved for comedic effect (ie, out of character, or satirical) or for the very rare occasion when you really need to show someone how mad/serious you really are. Adding it to everyday conversation — especially in PAID, published writing — is lazy as...uh...shit.
