The System 628: Don’t.

February 26th, 2013

George Long once said “Don’t write anything you can phone. Don’t phone anything you can talk. Don’t talk anything you can whisper. Don’t whisper anything you can smile. Don’t smile anything you can nod. Don’t nod anything you can wink.”

Sounds exhausting.

Just don't–well, great idea but then how would anyone communicate great ideas?

Guess you could carve things into rocks. That's not the same as writing. It would provide exercise so it's a win-win scenario. Yes, it would be exhausting as well but should also provide a sense of exhilaration and a good night's sleep.

(Of course carrying the rocks–boulders, depending on what you carve–might be a bit difficult.)

But Sir !
This is in direct opposition to something just over a week ago i was told.
The Jamie Noguchi rule !
Am I to follow that rule by blindly following this one?
But in doing so, NOT follow the first for anything?

Oh dear God. I'm all caught up. Finally. One mammoth 1-628 session completed. Thankfully not as bad as my XKCD catchup back in the day when I realised about 100 strips in that there was alt-text and had to start all over again. Thanks for not going that route. Anyway, where was I…?

Ah yes…

My eyes! My eyes! Everything is black and white, and filled with minimalist representations of the human form (and Jimmy the likely Scottish Terrier). I feel as though I've been the victim of an assault and bon-mottery.

Also, nice comic. Have already subscribed.

I just had some cornbread. Carry on.
