missterious:what do i think of this naff jibe? Not much of a cop. I'm easily insouciant to what you think. But, let me nippily say that less infernal people discuss ideas, not a person's diary that is no skin of their noses. Ditto for a person's diction. Have your dictionary for a dinner. 1 Like |

cupidhero: i think those who love using big words when writing a dairy is just plain stupid.if shedding ones thoughts in ones choice words (accumulated from a patient period of study) is plain stupid, then you are blandly asinine since you are also fleshing your conjecture in your own choice words. Spare me the rabid comprehension argument. Who says avid readers don't figure sense in what we write. Only less than studious fellows find incubus making sense of our write-ups. Come to think of it, a diary is for an audience of one. My diary is solely for me. Not for you to make a meal of. nosey-parker! cupidhero: Big words don't make you intelligent.neither does using "small words" make you intelligent. Intelligence has zilch to do with a man's knack for the letters. Einstein, soyinka et al spoke and wrote in english every bit your idea of "big words", yet they were no less sapient than Achebe who wrote fairly simply. One thing your ilks always fail to grasp before setting indolent thumbs to worn-out keypads to spew out flimflam is that every writer, every speaker has a distinct style of writing, of speaking the random readers/listeners will come to appreciate. Just time. No true writer deliberately sets out to impress. If you think it's relatively effortless to write in and speak with "big words" in a manner of speaking, try it and you will see how fatuous of a clown you will make of yourself. cupidhero: Write to convey a sensible message instead of writing to impress the fans of Hon patrick obahiagbon.permit me to borrow the words of the bible-holding, holy faves - if our gospel is lost, then it is lost to the unbelievers. If our messages are meaningless as it were to you, it only means you have a dearth of perspicacity. And you have a need to read more avidly to pick up more words. We weren't taught synonyms et al in school for the purpose of just to read and pass it. They were taught for some plausible reasons. And one of them is to equip you to comprehend write-ups like this, like mine. It might interest you to know that while you might cavil at the lofty writing and speaking styles of soyinka and patrick obanhiagbo respectively, a few of us find them perfectly relaying meaningful messages. Nobody is impressing anybody's fan. We write sponteinously in 'big words' just like you write sponteinously in "small words". If writing sponteinously tantamounts to impressing Patrick's fans, then it is safe to conclude you are also impressing your patience Jonathan's fans.. cupidhero: True intelligence starts with you not being a conformist. be yourself and stop sounding like a worthless piece of literary art.and you are not a conformist? Why do write 'simply'? Are you not conforming to the popular trite notion that it is better to write simply? What does that make you? A non-conformist? If anything, you a conspicuous example of a conformist. True intelligence is certainly not your perquisite. Yes, we sound like a wortheless piece of literary art for employing vocabs. And you sound like a lame pupil who just left primary school with no vocabs. You snivelled in vacuity as if these so called "big words" are french words, that they are not in the dictionary. What i expect you to be pedant about is to spot out grammatical errors. I'd be glad if you can confidently pin-point grammatical errors in what i have written since you seem to find fault as if there is a reward for it. If you are as intelligent as you want to make your sheepish, suggestible disciples to believe, then you shouldn't be here writing about me. For intellgent folks discuss about anything but people Cc: FrancisTony missterious 4 Likes 6 Shares |

Epaul, Your diary is yours & not mine. I'm sorry for criticizing it in public. I unfollowed it weeks ago. I should have left it at that. Just a quick question, do you talk like this in real life? |

Vivly:That quote/reply isn't directed at me. Vivly:I would never use a big word just to impress anyone not as if Epaul is trying to do so though. My style of writing is okay to me. |

To all those wey dey use big words, na una sabi abeg, make una dey use am go.. Wetin con-sign me ? As 4me, I don't use big words but I will definitely make more sense than you with my simple sentences .. I'm more concerned making sense with my simple sentences than writing what my readers will find difficult to comprehend.. Writing in epistle does not define intelligence so make una stop the ranting abeg.. Heheheheheehehe |

Vivly:You didn't see insults on his post? How am I going to reply it? By the way, I have unfollowed this thread long ago. He tagged me to see the post. Atleast, Missterious was tagged too. |
