Long sentences?

Does exactly what it says on the tin. Some of the nonsense contained herein may be very loosely related to The Sisters of Mercy, but I wouldn't bet your PayPal account on it. In keeping with the internet's general theme nothing written here should be taken as Gospel: over three quarters of it is utter gibberish, and most of the forum's denizens haven't spoken to another human being face-to-face for decades. Don't worry your pretty little heads about it. Above all else, remember this: You don't have to stay forever. I will understand.

"I mean, they're not gonna kill ya,
so if you give 'em a
quick, short, sharp, shock,
they won't do it again.
Dig it? I mean he got off lightly,
'cos I would've given him a thrashing
I only hit him once!
It was only a difference of opinion,
but really...I mean
good manners don't cost nothing
do they, eh?"
And you know that she's half crazy but that's why you want to be there.

TC agrees with pib face again.

But I'm not a gayer.

And not always.

Sometimes, in order to elaborate fully, one needs to build the structure of the sentence through gradual increases, each clause taking the pace faster and faster, higher and higher, moving the reader on as if turning the page in anticipation of the next nugget of fact which he is desperate to consume, until he is almost feverish with anticipation and then, once the climax is approaching and there is something of a plateau with the heightened mood beginning to level off, it is important to give the sentence a quick jerk (eh, lazarus?) on the reigns. Like that. It's over. We are back to short ones.

Boy that felt good.

Fair enough, and nice post, Francoise.

But please note: that doesn't mean I will sleep with you.

Just did that and someone came along and accused me of walking on my hands. Strange folks.
If I told them once, I told them a hundred times to put 'Spinal Tap' first and 'Puppet Show' last.
