That's the way I got through a lot of Patrick O'Brian a long time ago. I felt tired this morning after lack of sleep. After reading this, I'm kinda feeling it again

hey so I don't know if you've seen this article but the writing style reminded me a lot of yours: https://www.mcsweeneys.net/articles/a-marriage-proposal-spoken-entirely-in-office-jargon

@pix i unsubbed from mcsweeneys online rss because they post so damn much but this was a good one. i worked a corporate job for about a decade so I'm sure i have jargon artefacts in my written language

It was more the style of humor than jargon but it just reminded me of your writing. 😁

It took me getting through it 75% before I worked out what "rock" meant. Seems silly now but brain is an odd thing. I knew you were unlikely to smoke crack but just couldn't land on the right answer.
