Aphorisms Galore!

RH Junior???? Oh puhleez...

posted 2001 by Petronius Arbiter II

Hello to all, I just discovered Aphorisms Galore today, and added a couple of quotes. I then discovered there are about twenty or so recent entries from user name "RH Junior," who is basically trying to post a lot of quotes, of exceedingly dubious value from none other than... himself. Do others besides me think that is a misuse of this web site. Frankly, I'm not impressed by RH's alleged wit and wisdom, virtually all of which seems to be neither witty nor wise.

I totally agree!!!!

'RHJunior' has posted around 25 contirbutions since September 3rd....of his own creation

I fine...if you want to post your own aphorisms...in fact, I enjoy reading others peoples thoughts concerning reality...but

1. Make sure it is an aphorism or as Webster's says, "a short pithy sentence"....not an essay...

2. Make sure it hasn't been said by someone else already in the same manner you are phrasing your thoughts....

3. Make sure it is good....try it out on some friends, family, or other people you know...to solidify that it is in fact original and powerful...

That being said...I must also say I have much grace considering this subject because who knows, my thoughts could hinder a great thought.. Nonetheless I leave you with the charge, to fulfill to the extant that you feel able and necessary... And, as with many things in life, if we don't care and don't take personal responsibility than this will be a horrible website, but if we are willing to try our best to cultivate and produce wonderful aphorims than this, most certainly, could be one of the best sites on the web.
