C'est fini my sister, c'est fini.

I concur.

True Brit:
And it was Malcolm X who said "If you have no critics you'll likely have no success" and Aristotle who said "Criticism is something we can avoid easily by saying nothing, doing nothing, and being nothing" and S. Clark who said "It is easy to flatter and massage peoples ego but takes guts to to stand up to them and criticise".

There are always quotes that can be found to support one point or the other no matter how absurd they may be (they are simply that, mere quotes by famous people and not binding forces of law).

True.





SisiKill:

SeanT and the infamous chukky didn't give  their reasons for liking the composition.  No one is pointing a gun to their heads because their feedback is considered positive.

only exploded because a piece of scaffolding struck the hull of the ship which chipped off a piece of insulation foam on the ship making it unable to stand the heat of re-entry.

Liar liar, tits on fire. Booster failure ultimately led to the explosion of discovery, dummy. Don't invent your own conspiracy.

As wiki summarily put it, "an O-ring seal in its right solid rocket booster (SRB) failed at liftoff. The seal failure caused a breach in the SRB joint it filled, allowing a flare to reach the outside and impinge upon the adjacent attachment hardware and external fuel tank. The SRB breach flare led to the separation of the right-hand SRB and the structural failure of the external tank. Aerodynamic forces promptly broke up the orbiter. The shuttle was destroyed and all seven crew members were killed."

"One of the pieces on the huge rocket boosters that lifts the shuttle into orbit did not work correctly. This piece was called an O-ring, and it was part of the shuttle’s right rocket booster. The O-ring is like a giant rubber washer, just like the washer in your sink faucet. Because it was very cold on the morning of the launch, the O-ring did not work correctly. It allowed hot gases to leak out of the rocket booster. Flames from inside the rocket booster shot out of the place where the O-ring was supposed to be. These flames burned a hole in the shuttle’s external fuel tank and caused the rocket booster to break off, creating an even bigger hole in the fuel tank. The fuels in the tank mixed and created a giant fireball, tearing apart the shuttle."

Now, those are two sources (more available) explaining the accident. In disagreement with your morbid lie. I mean according to you it only exploded because it was struck by a scaffolding, right? As if. Stick to hurling insults will you?

chukky76:
its like you jsut clicked on my name and copied from my previous psotings because anyone whose been here long enough knows that that has been my pay off, only the intellectually challenged sling insults.

Lol @ this jokester, it's like you found the perfect phrase to describe yourself. The most glaring point you proved thus far is that you are intellectually handicapped. Clap for yourself.  Are you forgetting that insults are your forte? I don't think you reason before typing.  Your insults are hardly significant to me.  I almost pissed my pants laughing when I read your post; if anything it is comical.  You are being a troll, and are making a complete brainless fool out of yourself. Nagging like a little boy, throwing a fit because you can't have your way about something.  For the sake of staying on topic, I will ignore your disjointed insult-riddled posts and honor the girl's topic.  I beg you to stop.  You are just about irritating everyone now; vomitting and crying unconsolably all over the place.  It's sad to see an adult behave in this manner.

Sisikill:
Come now, Mr. CH3COO. . .you could have been more diplomatic and precise in your critique.

What do you think she could have done right,
What do you think she did wrong?

Just whack does not really cut it. We are here to encourage not put one another down.

SeanT21:
all chucky76 is trying to say is that "WHACK" was taken it a little bit too far. You could have easly said i didnt like it because,

Anyway, I love the poem.

sk and st,
So what, I'm not denying that.  No one is here to police other people's responses or tone correctness for that matter.  If you don't like or feel comfortable with the way your work will be critiqued by critics, then don't post it.  She felt comfortable enough to present her work, and of course you should expect critics and well-wishers alike to post their comments.  I don't want to be diplomatic and I don't appreciate the attempts by people to censor or govern what I write. You're here writing about what you think I should have done.  I don't want to do what you think and that's why YOU are free to post your own thoughts. I write how I feel.  We're here for reasons more than encouragement; we can also be critical of one another.  If you're here to encourage, then more power to you.  I only responded to "what do you think". That's what I thought.  If anyone here is guilty of putting someone else down it is chukky.  He is hyperventilating over my post and could go into cardiac arrest any second now.  As I said before, our opinions differ. It's okay to disagree.  I have nothing against her (the poster) as a person.  I read what she posted and didn't find it outstanding. Big deal! Who wants to sue me?

nanaboi:
@ CH3COO

Face it, what u did was not the best u could have done and someone just did exactly that 2 u and u're acting all upset. You thot her work was poor - that's not the crime - u attempted 2 mock it, or maul it - haba!
Ok, someone else thinks that that's "dumb" and u're acting like a wounded lion, trying to "kick kknowledge" _{according to Nas, the rapper}

Have u wondered how puerile it would have turned out if wildbubble had adopted your approach 2ward Chukky in responding 2 your impolite criticism?

You face it.  People don't always do their best at everything.  Is it unfair? Yes.  So what? Life is not always fair.  Some you lose, some you win. I don't see you or anyone else choking over posts that have found the writing superb.  Why mine?  Is it because it didn't suit your taste? Probably.  Which is exactly why you feel my criticism is impolite. On top of that you are all over exaggerating what I wrote.  To be frank, you're being biased and unfair. Could you be anymore infantile and ridiculous?  chukky deserves way  more condemnation than I, but you're not exactly scolding him as much as you should be, are you?  Maybe you chose to judge me by a different standard. I apologize if you think I'm overreacting.  If you (chukky) have learned anything at all from your schools or the educated people around you, then you would understand that it's alright for me to post what I did.  Leave the censorship to the moderators and admins.  If at all you people have a problem with what I jotted, you could have easily asked me to explain why I think it's "just whack".  Unfortunately I won't do that now, most especially since that close-minded dolt, chukky, is speaking as though his is a voice of reason and authority.  Instead, you have ignored arguably the most noble rule of dialogue, and like your thin-minded friend you're being barbaric and screaming hell fire.  How am I acting like a wounded lion when the wounded lion here with his ego hurt is none other than chukky?  I don't succumb easily to unreasonable attacks so don't expect me to roll over just because you disagree with my two cents.  If topic starter doesn't find my post to her delight that's okay.  I will respond accordingly.  Fortunately, she's receptive of both positive affirmation and criticism.

chukky76:
she doesnt welcome our thoughts , our means people like her. i can't go to nasa and say their last rocket was whack because i havent the slightest idea how to build one.

same applies here. you can't comment on what you don't understand hence your opinions are seriously not welcome

You are a daft.  Not only that.  You're also a good example of a person who uses stupid analogies where they don't apply.  YES! I CAN go to NASA and say their last rocket was whack if it doesn't perform its function, or especially when it exploded after so much of our taxpayers money has been drenched into building the shuttle. 

I'm seriously convinced that not even the most lucid of explanations can your open your mind.  Her description/title was not explicit.
What gives you the authority to decide who's welcome and who isn't? Nobody. Are you in a position any better than I am? No. There is no established criterion to define who does or doesn't understand the art.
"She doesn't welcome our thoughts, our means people like her."  Lol, what an illiterate.  Besides the fact that this is a public forum where all opinions are indeed welcome (except at the discretion of Seun), what part of "tell me what you think" don't you understand. This has got to be the most retarded post I've come across today.  Your mind is way too deep in the gutter.  If you need a concise definition of "our", then by all means please refer to the closest dictionary in your vicinity.  Seriously stop while you can, you're making yourself look very stupid and I urge you to save face.  Besides, how did you develop the idea that I don't understand?  Is it because I didn't find it fascinating, or because I thought it was whack?    Did you pull that thought out of your hat? So in your opinion, everyone with an opinion that does not "praise" what the thread starter posted doesn't understand the "art"?

chukky76:
I know idiots like you who think they're cocky and funny yet don't have one bit of creative juice in them. you could have said "i don't think its good, you need to work on so so so" not a flat out i think its whack.

it is a great "poem" /piece of literary work with the nice comic twist at the end .

you are a dumb Bleep that needs art explained to you

she doesnt welcome our thoughts , our means people like her. i can't go to nasa and say their last rocket was whack because i havent the slightest idea how to build one. same applies here. you can't comment on what you don't understand hence your opinions are seriously not welcome

How did you jump to the conclusion that I am one of those idiots who thinks he's cocky and funny? You're either dimwitted, or just trying too hard to defend a lost cause. I'm not the kind of person to sugar coat what I think. You will never regulate the things I say, nor will I allow you to dictate to me how to say them. I said, and I repeat, "it's whack". Now, what part of that don't you understand?

And i'm sure you still don't get it. Rather than pop a vein in your neck to convince me that I am, in your opinion, a dumbf***k. It is better you give up now while realizing that nothing you say will ever cause me to change my mind. Especially not with the tone you have used to engage me. Meanwhile, something you still seem to be misunderstanding from my post is the concept of "thought". My thought at the time was, "it's whack," and that's my reason for chiming in with that post. If you disagree with it, that's okay. Just don't think you can attempt to coerce me into agreeing with your thoughts.

chukky76:
its cool. the guy saying its whack is just one of those dumb fcuks who need art explained to them

Your ad hominem makes you look like the 'dumb Bleep'. The young woman welcomes our thoughts and I thought it was whack. We can always agree to disagree.

It's whack. Sorry to burst your buble.
