DiCaprio and Mulligan, meanwhile, don’t seem like star-crossed lovers so much as a delusional man in love with a bauble of a woman. Maybe that’s intentional?

good film crit always wonders “maybe that’s intentional,” and then proceeds as if it’s not

8 Words You Should Avoid When Writing


As always, Orwell’s final rule applies: “Break any of these rules before saying anything barbarous.” There are instances where each of these words fills a valuable role. However, especially among inexperienced writers, these words are frequently molested and almost always gum up the works.


1. “Suddenly”
“Sudden” means quickly and without warning, but using the word “suddenly” both slows down the action and warns your reader. Do you know what’s more effective for creating the sense of the sudden? Just saying what happens.

I pay attention to every motion, every movement, my eyes locked on them.Suddenly, The gun goes off.

When using “suddenly,” you communicate through the narrator that the action seemed sudden. By jumping directly into the action, you allow the reader to experience that suddenness first hand. “Suddenly” also suffers from being nondescript, failing to communicate the nature of the action itself; providing no sensory experience or concrete fact to hold on to. Just … suddenly.
Feel free to employ “suddenly” in situations where the suddenness is not apparent in the action itself. For example, in “Suddenly, I don’t hate you anymore,” the “suddenly” substantially changes the way we think about the shift in emotional calibration.
2. “Then”

My uncle’s dentist’s brother’s nephew’s dad’s dentist’s patient’s nephew who works at E3 sent me this photo he snapped of the full roster for Super Smash Bros. 4.  We can see that there are a lot less characters this time around, which makes sense due to the fact that Sakurai said he wanted to focus on balancing the game instead of adding new characters.  I wonder what Sakurai’s gameplay plans are this time around seeing as the roster is rather small.  We’ll find out as more information on the game surfaces!

My body is reggie.

ah yes, my daughters first double fail….a very epic and pwn memory. i remember how my wife cried tears of joy, knowing her baby girl had made her first ever F A I L, i remember the way her eyes welled up with tears and she said “le owned” as a smile broke over her face. how quickly they bloom, how high their stars rise. when she develops fine motor skills we  will let her choose her first Meme, her mom wants it to be Condescending Wonka but I’m rooting for a classic like The Trollface. Someday, she will make her first Rage Comic, be in her first Teens React To Video, and even find a Derp to her Derpina. the future is bright, the course is set, and the limit is the sky.
