Old McScammer Has A Scam - A I A I 0
Introduction The image above did make me laugh, and I wonder how many people believe this. I am not sure whether this should be in the Critque or Humor community, but I suppose the former, though anyone who believes the diatribe must be an idiot and deserve all they get.

Things Still Not Working On Vocal
Introduction Before I launch into this, let me state that Vocal is the best digital publishing platform, bar none, in my opinion. The problem is that they do not seem to have enough people to run the company, and when they do communicate, they are excellent; since the upgrade, we have had to deal with, and are still dealing with, many issues.

Do I Have The Time?
Introduction I love this picture that was shared by The Enchanted Booklet on Facebook here: I often feel under pressure to get things done, and usually there is no real pressure at all. I have been saddled with a major unexpected work issue that I need to fix in 48 hours, but that is my deadline, not anyone else's.

Pretty Good, Pretty Bad, Pretty Woman
Vivian is standing in that poured-on long red dress, with upswept hair, twinkly eyes and enormous Julia Roberts smile. Edward approaches, spiffy in a tux with a black bow tie, twinkly eyes and smug Richard Gere smile. He extends his arms and opens a jewelry box. With her white glove-enswathed arms, she moves to reach the sparkling diamonds and rubies inside. He snaps the box shut; she laughs. You can hear it. Roy Orbison croons “Pretty woman, walking down the street....” Even if you’ve not seen it, you know about the movie “Pretty Woman.” Millions saw it in theaters, millions more have seen it in the past decades, it remains a fun and popular favorite.

Technically Brilliant, Emotionally Dead. Top Story - August 2026.
What makes something overrated? Surely it is that acclaim and praise that has been bestowed upon it has been largely accepted as the general consensus. When people suggest something is the greatest and others nod in agreement for fear of speaking ill of that which should not be derided or criticised.
