The utterly pointless brain of Clodfobble thread - Page 5

Clodfobble · 07-27-2010, 09:45 PM

I daresay it's actually pretty passable when I'm just speaking. But narration has its own "accent," that straight non-regional thing. I can't do straight non-regional and British at the same time. British to me is all about the conversational lilt, which narration by definition can't have.

I actually used that movie maker site someone had posted here awhile back (www.xtranormal.com) for reference, since I figured a computer-generated British accent was pretty close to what I was trying to hit.

Clodfobble's brain traced the other 15% and was not surprised.

Helen Keller, Ray Charles, Ronnie Milsap, Stevie Wonder, José Feliciano, and Zatoichi...All of these people looked directly at Clodfobble's brain.

Once.

I don't think clodfobble's brain is utterly pointless. Unless we're talking shape in which case I'd agree it's probably more of a cauliflower shape

The wording was indeed awkward, but I think he meant the thread was pointless.

Yes, the awkwardness was intended, meant to be ambiguously ironical.

Clodfobble's brain can sand the points off other brains, rendering them pointless.

Really? I think it's more ironically ambiguous.
