Bullshit Train 101: the "Let's Do This!" edition
Welcome back my friends to the bullshit that never ends.
We're so glad you could arrive - come inside, come inside!
This particular blog entry I would like to focus on an issue that plagues nearly every bullshit train edition. More or less an informational guide, this will focus on a problem that's been around since Let's Do This day 1: E-MAILS
Now before you twist your knickers, know this: E-mails are a great part of the show -- when they ask a good question. And sometimes a good question might be asked, but due to the everlasting obstacle that is the English language that question is often cast into an answerless void, destined to haunt the interwebs for all eternity. Let's take a moment and identify the hiccups.
Run on Sentences
I'll make up an example:
Studying A Broad
Not a woman, but a general as all hell question like:
Are you kidding me!? 30 years? So many films and changes to the film industry have happened in 30 years that its very difficult to declare 1 interesting film in 3 decades. And what do you mean by "interesting"? From a technical standpoint, best acting, most intriguing plot? What? At least pin it down to maybe 5 to 10 years, on a certain genre, or some sort of specific declaration that opens up discussion and debate for the bullshit train conductors.
The "Pay-Off"
Some say patience is a virtue - others say its somewhat of a waste of time:
*sigh* Was that superfluous set-up really entirely necessary? At least it was relevant to the question. And all that time reading the set-up could have been more time towards fucking other thoughts. The more fucked thoughts the better. Just looking at the size of the paragraph is a guaranteed boot. Korey is a professional and you cannot shit a shitter.
Other than the rare and seldom instance where Korey somehow confused a movie about a day walking vampire hunter with a movie about a talking pig, learning from these 3 mistakes can better yours and others Let's Do This experience. Granted, these emails that are read open up hilarious riffing from our gracious hosts, but moderation is key.

Could you figure this one out? I sure as hell didn't. Even though, technically, there was more than one question asked at least separate the thoughts. Oh yes, they will be fucked, but first separate them with the use of commas and periods. Korey and Co-Host cannot simultaneously fuck thoughts. As long as you line them up neat and tidy, I'm sure they'll fuck anything! (thoughts, that is...)

@chillax Korry and Co - Host have said that the place u should put your Scrips and/or novels that you want read is in the recycling bin. Considering how much work Korey does on a daily basis i don't think he'd have the time... and ya gotta be green and remember to recycle!

How about people sending their scripts and novels for them to read?

I love reading really long run-on sentences. It's like running a marathon for your brain.

Yeah, the LDT crowd isn't exactly the brightest audience out of the three podcasts. It's great to see that someone is actually trying do something about the e-mails, awesome job!

Heh heh, loved this post; neatly encapsulates all the questions that Korey and Co-Host want to beat people's skulls in for

One more thing: People need to stop sending their questions to everyone in the Let's Do This group (and the LEOG group). Go to Korey's page and submit your question to him, not all of us.
