Welcome to the Wakefield Doctrine (the theory of clarks, scotts and rogers)
What Day is it?
Is there a significance, from the perspective of writing new blogposts, to this, now established fact?
Can one really apply the label of ‘fact’ to a subdivision of time, which actually is a higher order division of Hours?
Who decided that?
Why?
Can we move on now?
Who is Phyllis?
Who is Una?
Why should anyone have an issue with the personal pronoun ‘who’ applied to a non-human?
Wouldn’t that make that person something less than human themselves?
What is the Wakefield Doctrine?
Is it really the primum principium?
What is this Six Sentence Story bloghop all about?
For that matter, this term that is bandied about in reference to some other websites, what is this ‘bloghop’?
Yes, we’ve become comfortable in the role of interlocutors, why do you ask?
What about being an abstract entity, a Reader, should that upset one?
How many more of these?
Of course we’re familiar with Bob Newhart’s original, in all senses of that word, standup comedy bit; the one-sided phone call, you’ve heard it, right?
What exactly is it that implies, in our answer or our attitude, that we would need a break?
Who hasn’t read a serial story?
Two serial stories?
Isn’t that last, kinda like, cheating?
Will the correct answers be provided?
Why should we care if the term, concordance, was bandied about?
Haven’t you have heard another person use the phrase, bandied about?
Why are you laughing?
Will there be music?
Something something? What the heck is that supposed to mean?
Surely, you’re not using a slang phrase as an Grat Item?
Are you aware of that expression being somewhat on the salacious side?
Who would doubt the person prone to use ‘bandied about’ would love ‘salacious’?
There is a Book of Secret Rules to this quote-process-unqoute?
Why should one be relieved at the appearance of Secret Rule 1.3?

Yes, yes I am familiar with Bob Newhart.
No, don’t be ridiculous. Of course I do.
I suppose you’re right, time will tell.
Fun post, Clark!
lol
Highly amusing and entertaining, even if Ms. P,, 12th Grade English, would have gladly taken you to task over using “who” for a non-human.
thank you, M
I love Bob Newhart and love that skit.
Usually when you invoke Secret Rule 1.3, it’s because your post mayyyyybe fell short of the target 10
Yes ma’am
