I'd actually appreciate constructive, tactful criticism.  Well if I'm honest part of me would, part of me would worry that constructive criticism would really be an excuse to take the piss.

I don't think criticism would make me stop trying to write, but it could make me reconsider my audience if it was more of the  'Sew my leaky asshole up and rip me a new one' type, rather than constructive.

Maybe we need a new thread in the Submissions Forum: "Sew my leaky asshole up and rip me a new one" or something specifically for no-holds-barred critique.


this must be a personal jab at me.

i have discussed my anal leakage problems before.

Why the hell would I take a personal cheap shot at you, McJagger? If I wanted to take a sucker punch at you it would be in the first person/second person framework, not slimed in from afar, dropped somewhere as a hint.
I can't understand why you would think that. You are not the only one with a leaky asshole, for another thing. It is also slang for someone who won't shut-up, which is closer to what I meant to describe.  Also, describing the odorous "Fartistes" who are constantly posting their fartwork, like my twenty pages of fractals.

How about "Shut me up and tell me why I suck".  That just doesn't have the same ring to it. (That's not meant personally either, to anyone.)

Besides, McJ, I had forgotten all about your leakage problem. Sorry that it's still a subject you think about.

You seem to have a fairly low opinion of me, for some reason.

Uh, I think that he was joking, and erm, being kind of self-centered, as we always are?

On topic...or is it off topic?

I saw my stepdad's mum the night before she died. She was dying from bowel cancer. It was not a nice sight. And even though she told people I was "simple", I still felt sorry for her.

My great aunt died of bowel cancer.  She was in such horrible pain, even though she had morphine shots, which my aunt, who was a nurse, could give her.  I remember her telling someone to rip her tailbone out, brcause she hurt so much.

I was with my ex's mother when she died from breast cancer which spread to her bones and lungs.  My grandmother died of ovarian cancer which spread to her lungs, but she waited to die so she could see me first.  She died shortly after I was born.  My mother had thyroid cancer which spread, but she died of a heart attack while she was in the hospital.

I'd choose a heart attack before cancer any day. My grandfather died of cancer in the spleen and pancreas. He died after just six week in the hospital but before that he had a football-sized cyst in his stomach and gruesome pains, which even morphine couldn't stop.

And if the cancer doesn't get you, the treatment will. My dad survived the cancer but the radiation therapy took whatever resistance he could offer against pneumonia and the like. :(
