Ever So

If I EVER read that phrase in another book again I’m going to tear it apart. “He ever so quietly crept down the hall” DO YOU REALLY NEED THE “ever so” IN THERE?? DO YOU?!? NO NO NO! You don’t need the “ever so” it takes up space, makes the sentence clunky. It ADDS NOTHING to the phrase. “He quietly crept down the hall” works JUST as good but it’s two words shorter. I’m just sick of flowery writing that sucks! It makes it SO HARD to read the book. What I need is to take a break from the crap and read something good.

Anyone have any suggestions?

EVIL

So because the client can’t decide how to spell the word “premier” (is it with an E at the end or not?) and because of a missed apostrophe, I get yelled at. Like I want to sit here late on Henry Rollins night for a stupid ad for a stupid show that nobody is going to go see anyway. The Evil One acts like I purposely waited until NOW to do all this crap. As if! And like we have SO MUCH to do right now anyway… puh-leeze!

Bite my ass, bitch!
