Who Do You Write Like? - General

[QUOTE][I]Why? The same reason someone would be hetero, homo or bisexual. I think you might be mixing it up with abstinence. But I kind of see your point with that it's largely unknown.[/I][/QUOTE] A post I did in WAYT during a short debate where I asked why asexuals (me included) are ignored so often. Result: David Foster Wallace.

Mario Puzo. He just wrote the Godfather. Nothing big..

I write like Raymond Chandler, apparently. [editline]01:27AM[/editline] Sweet, the guy influenced the modern private detective story :v: That's a cool style.

I wrote a rant on how i reckon the site is just a load of bollocks: [i]The first thing that strikes me is the notion that this thing probably doesn't work. I mean, How can a simple programm recognise, analyse and identify similarties between the written words of two different people? All Programmes work from a series of written commands, true, but they do so in the same way as a dog understands commands; It will recognise the word "sit", and will obay. But tell it to "Sit on that chair over there", and it will simply obay the one word it knows. If i where to tell microsoft word, for example, to "save the picure of the doggy on the chair", it wouldn't respond until i said "save DOGCHAIRLOL.Jpeg" Secondly, what are the chances of an internet user posessing the ability to write like any author of note? In my experiance, the internet is a billion cross dressing lunatics howling into their blogs and showing the eloquancy of a semi-retarded duck. Yet somehow this site can take the height of E-wit (something along the lines of "hurr durr th3 ca1ke 15 a l13"), and comparing it to the works of Edgar Allen Poe! Quite frankly, i think it's a load of horse-shit.[/i] My result? H.P. motherfucking Lovecraft. That boosted my ego so much.

I wrote a short zombie story and it gave me H.P. Lovecraft. Never heard of him. Whoever the hell that is, guess I am welcomed to the HP club?

[QUOTE=Ian;23378496]Heh. Copypasta. Not giving out the source.[/QUOTE] I know. It was from some school report or book report that ended with "The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air" theme. Am I right?

[quote]It was a brisk cold that chilled my body. The snow drifted down like ashes in a war-torn city. She was standing in the parking lot. Her lips pierced the cold. She was my only way out. "Mona." My voice struggled. I walked towards her. I hear the sound of a gun slide being cocked. All too familiar. My dream is fading out. The walls of the sky slide down like wallpaper in a room melted by the fires of hell itself. The shot echoed throughout the lot. A metallic taste filled my mouth. Blood drip down into the snow, turning it to a crimson slush. The painkillers fell out of the bottle and mixed with the slush. A horrible concoction. Mona faded out. Her rose overcoat morphed like a heatwave into a turquoise windbreaker. It was the cleaners. Six years after my revenge, I've finally paid back. I see my wife and baby. Honey, I'm home.[/quote] Got me James Joyce.

I write like David Foster Wallace apparently. Don't know who he is. I bet it just picks a random author, this can hardly be accurate/ [editline]11:16PM[/editline] I pasted "GAY WEED DAD 69" a few dozen times and it said I write like Steven King. :wtc:

James Joyce

David Foster Wallace

Apparently, I write like Edgar Allen Poe. Or Dan Brown.

[QUOTE=Hullu V3;23377613]Kurt Vonnegut? Who is thaT?[/QUOTE] He wrote Slaughterhouse 5 and Cat's Cradle, ie books everyone should read.

So apparently I write like Kurt Vonnegut. I call bullshit on this thing. I could never stand up to Vonnegut.

I guess I'm the only one that writes like Kipling. Weird.

[QUOTE=Hullu V3;23377613]Kurt Vonnegut? Who is thaT?[/QUOTE] NIJA'D fuck Very good writer, wrote Slaughter House Five and Breakfast for Champions. I tried it twice with 2 seperate story segments I wrote, one got me H.P. Lovecraft, the other got me some guy named Arthur who I forget now.
