Chao- Why is everyone looking at Chao like that?
Random readers of blog- *stare at Chao annoyed*
YChao- I think you should take a look at your last post.
Agent Daisy- *holds up laptop*
Chao- What about it?
YChao- What the heck was that?! Are you trolling your own blog or something?!
Chao- Hey! It's called the beauty of language! This was constructed from a list of words people considered to be beautiful. It was a homework assignment while Chao's class was reading Gertrude Stein's Tender Buttons!
YChao- You do a lot of homework for classes, and I don't see you posting your failing essays or anything.
Chao- Ok, maybe it was for a good laugh. Almost everyone in class hated it at first, but some grew to like it as we examined it. Didn't care much for Tender Buttons, and Chao probably will never pick up that book again.
Agent Daisy- *tilts head to side*
Chao- People can compare that book and the past entry for this blog to cubism art. Some people like it after examining it, and some people don't. And some people dislike something simply because they don't understand it.
YChao- And does this and the past entry have anything to do with your typical theme in this blog?
Chao- Eh, kinda. Language is both a means of communication and art. Some readers will dislike something, but it should be OK to dislike something even after you examine it. After all, with fan fics or original stories, you don't need to like everything. Isn't that why there are a lot of genres out there?
YChao- Nope, it's all scam to make money.
Agent Daisy- *nods head*
Chao- That may be true, but Chao is still aiming to be an editor. Hopefully Chao won't get anyone who plans to write something like Tender Buttons.
