Maverick: You really don't like me, do you? Iceman: I never said that. Slider: Mm, but you did write "Maverick = Problem" on the whiteboard in the locker room.

Slider: You know what my problem is with you, Goose? You're too nice. Goose: Thank you! Slider: That wasn't a compliment-

"epithets are bad" "epithets are lazy writing" "epithets make your writing feel novice" "epithets are the devil" -> tell me you don't understand what epithets are without telling me you don't understand what epithets are

epithets draw attention to a specific detail of a character that is somehow important to the scene. epithets make sentences more vibrant than just using a pronoun or name.

list of some random examples of epithets that some people might not even realize are epithets: "star crossed lovers" (Romeo & Juliet) "the girl on fire" (The Hunger Games) "the Sith Lord" (Star Wars) "the Man of Steel" (Superman) “Swift-footed Achilles” (Homer’s Iliad) "Grey-eyed Athena" (Homer's Illiad) “The Big Apple” (New York City) "The King" (Elvis Presley) "Gandalf the Grey/the White" (Lord of the Rings/The Hobbit) "the stone in my shoe" (Masters of the Air)

TLDR: if the only epithets you view as being bad are things like "the blond man"/"the taller woman"/etc, then news flash, you don't actually hate epithets! so stop telling writers that they have to change their style just because you don't understand what epithets actually are!

there was going to be a new chapter of eagle's flight tonight but then i decided to do a light work out and the treadmill had been reprogramed for miles instead of kilometers without anyone telling me

so long story short i accidentally ran 2 miles in 13 minutes and now i am dead

so the chapter has to wait until tomorrow when hopefully i will be less dead lsdakjf

just donated blood and broke my personal record for how fast i donated (under 11 minutes) just for my phlebotomist to tell me about this work out group of middle aged men who come in every eight weeks like clock work and race each other to see who can donate blood the fastest

their record is 4 minutes and 10 seconds
