Talk:Dick Hertz

Now this is just stupid. And not in the good way.--Colonel Sanders 15:14, 9 Ergust 2011 (UTC)

Offering me an ?pedia article from 2007 as an example tells me that your tastes are different, and that you either don't like my style of writing, or haven't read enough of my stuff to know what my style is like. My writing varies from lousy to excellent, but even my worst stuff has a right to be here. When that changes, I'll find somewhere else to call home. ~ The Bard of Illogicopedia 15:39, 9 Ergust 2011 (UTC)

You're right; it does have a right to stay here. I'm not saying it doesn't. I just tend to think juvenile titles such as these are (were?) a hallmark of Uncle Pete. I was just giving you mah opinun, which in reality actually means nothing. Much of my writing is lousy, as a lot of other writing here is. I probably have completely tastes than you do. I like silly and randumb and my writing probably reflects 2007/early 2008 stuff here (though the more decent retro stuff; to date, I have only done one repetitive, and that was because I was hungry), which might explain why I can't getz teh feature (though this monstrosity was nommed way back when). I'm just not a big fan of Uncle Pete's style, satir, which really sucks half or more of the time. I admit, I really haven't read much of your stuff and am not sure about your general style. I may do so sometime in the future. Sorry for any misunderstandings.--Colonel Sanders 18:34, 9 Ergust 2011 (UTC)

Quite all right, but from the sounds of it you probably won't like much of what I do... satire is kind of my stock in trade. My favourite thing to do is use academic language, technical terminology or forms of creative writing like poetry, and marry it to my subject. The way that nonsense is obfuscated by fancy talk in the real world makes it a natural fit to apply to things that are truly nonsensical and ridiculous. In general, I try to avoid profanity and excessively juvenile material... but Dick is definitely one of my glaring exceptions. He's basically just a recyclable journalist that I can attribute quotes to whenever I need a member of the "media" to have an opinion. Now Uncle Pete eventually forced me to delete him because he's not a real person... but then that was the whole point. Hopefully I can get a good few years in here before it is eaten by bureaucracy, although knowing some of the veterans here somewhat, I hope this doesn't happen.

Thanks for the IOTM vote. A kind gesture; I truly appreciate it. ~ The Bard of Illogicopedia 23:24, 9 Ergust 2011 (UTC)

As far as juvenile names go, this isn't as bad as Hugh G. Rekshun. Satire just isn't really ?Pedia. It's Uncle Pete. Academic language can provide good randumb oppourtunity. I hope satirist bureaucrats don't take over this site.It seems Uncle Pete's banning and deletion policies are on par with Conservapedia now. As for journalist recycle thingies, I just use Glenn Beck. I don't know why Pete would want you to delete him because he's not real. These people aren't real, are they? Just watch out for Athyria. She's also a Pete theocrat. As far as IOTM goes, if Regis can be nommed, why not you?--Colonel Sanders 23:51, 9 Ergust 2011 (UTC)
