Quote of the Day: Albert Camus makes a clear point

,

Those who write clearly have readers. Those who write obscurely have commentators.

—Albert Camus

I think today the Nobel laureate author might say “angry commenters” instead of commentators.

    Quoting Camus. Interesting.

    Well angry commenters get your point, they just don’t like it, no matter how clear it is.

    • John

      That appears to be the case. Haha!

    Don’t walk in front of me; I may not follow. Don’t walk behind me; I may not lead. Just walk beside me and be my friend. – Albert Camus (1913-1960) writer and philosopher

    What the f is your point?

    • John

      You must have missed it. No need to be “angry”.

        I WAS KIDDING. (It seemed SO obvious to me that I was. Oh, well…)

    I think Oakland Raider fans are an entirely different denomination of all this. Those who write critically about the Raiders have commentators stemming from the seventh circle of hell.

    This is very insightful, especially for any of our writers that are feeling frustrated with negative feedback

    And btw, only explaining two months later because this, apparently, is now on my Google “permanent record.”

    Today’s lesson: On the Internet, never assume people will understand your intentions.
