I'm not gonna beat around the bush. I'm just gonna whack it on the head with a stick and hope for the best.
Okay. You know when people have a character sing a song? And they put the lyrics in, so the reader can have a little singalong? And how you always skip past the lyrics, because you don't actually care to read four pages worth of some random song you don't know the tune to?
Well, newsflash: YOU'RE NOT THE ONLY ONE WHO SKIPS OVER LYRICS. EVERYONE ELSE DOES TOO.
Because when people are trying to enjoy a nice story from someone, THEY'RE NOT WANTING TO SKIM PAST FIFTY PAGES OF "and the duck walked up to the lemonade stand and he said to the man, running the stand, "Hey!" bum bum bum. "Got any grapes?" BECAUSE LET'S FACE IT. THEY DON'T CARE HOW MANY TIMES THE DUCK ASKS FOR GRAPES, IT'S A LEMONADE STAND! NOT A GRAPE STAND! THEY CAME FOR THE LEMONADE, NOT THE GRAPES!
(My retarded analogy was s'posed to mean that the lemonade is the story, and the grapes are the lyrics. Grapes don't belong in lemonade, do they? No. They belong in grapade, but that's a different story.
Oh, and check out The Duck Song if you haven't already)
I forgot what I was ranting about :/
Goodbye :)
And he waddled away, waddle waddle. And he waddled away, waddle waddle waddle. And he waddled away, waddle waddle, to the very next day. Bum bum bum, bum ba da dum.
