To do so is a biased criticism.<br /><br />However, this site itself is not biased in its purpose-which appears to only look for the bad things in the comics.<br /><br />But if you look at it from the perspective of proper criticism, and that only, then yes, this site IS biased.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6714810984552499396.post-82369079142934591342010-08-19T03:57:15.038-07:002010-08-19T03:57:15.038-07:003:16, thank you for that, that's probably the ...3:16, thank you for that, that's probably the best argument against one of these rants I've ever seen.

This means not using flowery language, but it doesn't mean avoiding using a word if it is the best word for the job.<br /><br />In your example, I don't really like either sentence as it stands--I'd prefer something like "I have to swipe in and out of work every day." Unless the concept of the card-reader is important, you can pretty much gloss over it.<br /><br />If the concept is important, remember that "simple" doesn't mean "stupid." It's closer to "pithy." In this case, "electronic card reader" is better than "swipey-thing," and you're actually explaining the function of the swiping--it reads your ID card. Saying you're sliding a card in a swipey-thing is only a good sentence if you are trying to convey that you don't have any idea what you're doing, that it's just some magical ritual.<br /><br />Good writing is about precision. I prefer to err on the side of being too pithy--more people being able to understand something isn't a bad thing, and pithiness is much more elegant than grandiloquence--even if sometimes it might fail to convey all of the information I want it to get across.<br /><br />Does that answer your question?rshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15828938843801425383noreply@blogger.com
