"right sideup, left sidedowns" is a phrase or sentence that have a symbolic sense to them, or a phrase or sentence that relates 2 objects or things that complement eachother in some way.

Examples like:

Diamond like fruits grow on wretched wilted trees.

In order to have empathy, you must first aquire sympathy.

Literal sentences are one broad color, figurative sentences are the rainbows themselves.

If you don't understand it yet, then tell me so.

Actually, this one isn't as bad as the countless RP threads - this one has actually got something to do with english, which is good, considering the irrelevant nonsense Xiash's been hurling all over the place =P.

In order to have empathy, you must first aquire sympathy. << I think that you got it the wrong way - in other for others to sympathise with you, you must empathise with them. Unless you mean it in some obscure way that I don't get, then yeah.

Even the prettiest rose has thorns.

Also decadence, it's "emapthize" and "sympathize" ;)

Nope he got it right.
It's Sympathize/empathize someone/thing. which is doing it.

And he used it as a object. the object Empathy. which is correct.


Back to topic.

Is this one good?

Oldness like stone crumbles in time sending it back to its most primal stage.

OR is this just a comparistatoin?

I don't see why the moon gets drunk... oh well.

Badfurday, your quite odd. First thing I hear from you is telling me to stop "spamming", even though all my threads carry some sense of English in them when I try to get the community here to participate in the Story Forums other then RP's and stuff like that.

I was hoping that people such as you, Johnfn, Fladian, Azhag, and everyone else consider the threads that I make with this kind of theme a good way to get away from the rating and the comments, and instead submit stuff that is from the community.

If you think that these type of things are off topic, then I might as well never make these threads at all.

In truth, I like the story forums, so, I'm trying to find better ways to keep it alive.

I would consider these type of things funner in ways.

Your true reflection is only seen by a true mirror.

To fight with a sword brings cowardice, but to fight with a gun brings disgrace.

In order to live, we must be as green as the leaves themselves.

What I would really like to see, is one of the mods. of this forum make a stickied thread about proper use of grammar in stories. So that we don't have to continue to make these threads. Good idea though. Also, if you are going to make threads like these you better make sure you grammar is perfect. I found one mistake.

When writing, any numbers under ten, should be written in word form.

Ignited, what I (and other people probably) expect from a story forum is... stories. No word comparisons, no "righs sideups, left sidedowns", no RP's, but stories. And stories are the rarest thing we have here. Because stories ARE rare. You need time to make a good story, and a story forum should work slowly. That's the thing/point/plot/noob.

Oops... need to listen to my own advice. :P

I still say it's ok, but now, we're going off topic, so:

One can do wonders when they are handicapped(hmm... might be the wrong place to put it)
