And there you go again dICK, still dicking around.

My prose teacher once quoted the paragraphs here under. They remind of you dicking around.

Most adjectives and adverbs do not add information; they just take up space and DULL the message.

Example: "I am very interested in quickly scheduling an in-person interview".

Remove the adjectives and you get the same message, but sharper: "I am interested in scheduling an interview."

Pardom me, dear Tycho, but if it wouldn't be too much of an inconvenience, could I trouble you to do me (us) the favor of applying your obvious considerable facility with "common sense" to Just Get To The Damn Point?

Incidentally, how do you charm a girl?

@Tycho should know that communication is:
"Two-way process of reaching mutual understanding, in which participants not only exchange information, news, ideas and feelings but also create and share meaning. In general, communication is a means of connecting people".

I'm not saying we should limit tycho's imagination or broad thinking, we're saying is that know his audience is first step in communication. Maybe his name is derived from "techy". It reminds me of those technical people you ask them something and they give a lot technical stuff, not relevant to question or situation, in the process communicating "nothing" at all.

So @tycho can flex his mind in the appropriate thread. But "normal" threads got "normal" discussion, he should drop the adjectives.

Otherwise, even dealing with your wife will be a problem and might end up a lonely man.

Or that the expression is pointless.

Yes. No pulling punches. Do you think speech or writing can ever get to the point? Kindly show me an expression that's to the point, because saying 'succint' about a paragraph in a long text is telling.

Otherwise how is it that even despite the many exchanges between us, you've not been so 'succint' about adjectives and adverbs, and have only waited for @mathenge's expression? Or have you been expressing yourself in many words?

And isn't 'succint' an adjective?

Its such a shame when grown men gang up on someone simply because he is not acting in a way that they want him to. You cannot dictate to people what they can or cannot be, I wonder what gives you the authority. Everyone is on this site for different reasons, maybe Tycho's reason is this is where he can have philosophical conversations and expand his thinking, I wonder how someone else can then come and tell him that that is not allowed! Unless you own this site, you have no authority telling someone else what they should discuss, especially when it does not harm anyone. I personally rarely read Tycho's posting because at the moment I am not interested in Philosophy, so I scroll past them, and I suggest that you all do the same. If that doesn't work, you can always block him, but don't try to muzzle him as if your thoughts and opinions are more important than his. Tycho keep calm and post on!
