The Best Sentence of the Day

This blog is a cut-up of a dissertation in progress. Each day, I will post my favorite sentence that I have newly scribed. Everything out of context, but suggestive. I hope.

Best Sentence #22

Since the chest pain is no longer excruciating, it's back to writing I go. Days lost: 5. And may I mention that dissertation writing still qualifies as more painful than broken ribs?

The best sentence of the admittedly sparse evening of writing (just 1 page):

How does the percentage of people who engaged with B.U.G. the situation compare with the percentage who people who engaged with B.U.G. the spectacle?

Was?!? Ich verstehe gar nichts!! :-)

hmmmm... let's see... isn't there a little bit of punctuation missing here somewhere or am I imagining things? Or am I missing the "gaming culture inside joke" here? Sounds a bit ungrammatical...

"How does the percentage of people who engaged with B.U.G. the situation compare with the percentage who people who engaged with B.U.G. the spectacle?"

Shouldn't it be?

"How does the percentage of people engaged with B.U.G. - the situation - compare with the percentage people engaged with B.U.G. - the spectacle?"
