Check out Patrick's new WiP, y'all!

[guest]

Remember when I joked about writing a Christmas Carol sequel where a grown Tiny Tim teams up with Oliver Twist and David Copperfield in a bloody rampage through the London underworld to avenge Ebenezer Scrooge's murder? Fuck it, we're doing this.

[405 words btw.]

What's funny is, I just saw a commercial for a TV show where The Rock was playing a grown up Tiny Tim kicking people's asses and it was all for the purpose of a satirical joke. Rick is actually taking the hack premise that The Rock was making fun of and taking it seriously.

 

[Cuphead]

Another book he will never finish

Document1 - Professional writer doesn’t seem to save his work

 

[Gay Faggot.]

What number WiP is this now? 5 or 6? He’s allegedly started like 3 books and 2 movies. He’s fat and a lazy sack of shit who can’t finish one idea.

 

[IGotATreeOnMyHouse85]

Another book he will never finish

He’s up to something like 20-30 “projects” he starts but then gets distracted with twitter and never finishes. He’s been writing “on spec” (free and nobody wants it) for over a year with zero on the horizon.

Can’t come up with something 100% original. Needs to take someone else’s idea/work, change it up a bit and call it his own. Will Tate knows what I’m talkin’ about

"What if these beloved Public Domain characters were a part of some capeshit story?!"
Worst part is, Rick probably thinks he's a genius for thinking of it.

I’m surprised he hasn’t already gone full hack and put it IN SPACE!

 

[JumboYumYums]

He mispelled Ebenezer, to begin with. Also it's a ha'penny not hay penny and pound sterling not sterling pounds. "Considering his considerably" is another extremely clunky, shitty turn of phrase that could definitely be worded better. Amateurish at best, Charles Piggens child.

That's coming, you watch. Scrooge's murder was some illimunati shit to retrieve a space macguffin that is the secret behind Santa Claus, who is actually an immortal diverse pansexual non-binary space marine.

I’m sure it will also have the greatest space president ever, Roe Tiden

 

[MonsterSteve]

"considering his considerably advanced age".

 

[Meownaw]

His dialogue is dogshit. Also nice job writing a Christmas story in December you fucking moron.

 

[42069]

I made it two sentences

He’ll be writing this while drunk and alone on Christmas. Hope hooligans is closed so the staff can have a holiday away from the pig.

 

[Tortfeasor]

He signed up for Microsoft Office with the name "Patrick S. Tomlinson" ... What a douche

 

[MunchausenByProxy]

405 words. I bet he came up with the idea and typed this out in an Adderall induced frenzy, he’ll wake up the next day and be completely disinterested, never touching it again.

I’ve taken Adderall to write papers in college and this is exactly what happens. I swore I was writing A material in the moment, and then Id read it sober and it would make zero sense

 

[TorquieTwoBeers]

Good Lord is that first paragraph verbose. And following it with "Marley among them" is nonsensical given the ambiguity of "them". The subject of his previous sentence is "the many earthly virtues [honesty]" which renders "Marley among them" nonsense. He wants "them" to refer to the "Spirits" (presumably), but it is way too difficult for professional writer Pat to thread that needle. The last sentence of that first paragraph is an absolute trainwreck.

 

[Slackjawed Cow]

The josiah article would have 20 of these pages.


gullible pat.
