I gasped for breath as a sack was lifted off my head,I felt woozy.my equipment was on a table,well except the small switch blade I had planted in my throat two years ago.I could escape,but then I saw the two ponies blocking a stairwell,lets see lets see I thought to myself as the ponies were distracted.the one to the left had scars on every inch of his body judging by how he kept talking about the wonderbolt's winning streak I could say he was from cloudsdale. the other one seemed like he was from canterlot,nothing special about him."hey I think you have a misunderstanding here fellas"I say slowly moving my hooves to the back of the chair I was tied to.the canterlot pony came up to me smaked me in the head with a baseball bat,I coughed up a large amount of blood.
"he's had enough"said a pony walking down the stairs the two ponies groned and moved up the stairs."who the hell are you"I mumbled as I coughed blood on his white coat.he looked disgusted then finally said"I need you to meet the boss,he's at a weapon showing right now" I groaned,"ok fine"I say bored yet curious at the same time.If they were at a weapon showing that only met one thing.
royalty.
~canterlot castle gardens~
"ok who do you need me to make go on a little trip"I say with a dark grin.The captain frowned "I need you to eliminate my second in command" he said (I believe shining armor was it,oh well it doesn't matter right now)."ok sign here"I say pointing at a contract,"you have to be joking"he said."with a business like this I have to work a certain way with every client"I joke,"fine,the target is in the castle,third floor,look for a ton of mares in sexy underwear"he said writing his name on the paper."ok"I say walking toward some bushes laughing about how the guy knows all of this.
I pulled out my custom multi-scoped bow and steel (glass penetrating) arrow.I pulled my arrow and I saw a mare yell,then I saw blood on the window and a body fall out of the window."aww hell"I moan and fly towards the body,I see it was my target..."hell"I moan again.
"HEY YOU STOP HOOVES BEHIND YOUR HEAD"said a unicorn guard'I finally coughed out the blade but then the unicorn shot a beam at me."hey owww that hurt"I say laugh everything was blurry.then I collapsed.
~canterlot jail~
"alright you can go now"said the guard,just then I saw a fire colored maned pegasus walk in the cell."spitfire what are you doing here"I grumbled as I walked out of the cell."don't worry you won't have to repay me" "thanks"I say happily as we walked out the jail.
"so I guess I will see you later"I say getting ready to fly,"ohhh no were going to cloudsdale,I know this great place to eat and this AMAZING club"she said excitedly."no way"I say walking away from her,"ohhh come on you just got out of jail you need to relax and meet ponies,possibly get a marefriend"she winked at me giggling."fine on one condition"I grumble "of course"said spitfire "you gotta pay for everything"I say with a sly grin.
"fine lets just go already"she said,I looked back at the broken window and saw the whole scene over and over again as we set off.

While absolutely hilarious, this is also completely uncalled for. This is a writing and writing appreciation community of fans, not 4chan. Save the trolling for lazy writers who've already proven they can do better, but just aren't. New writers and people who have a lesser grasp on the main points of the English written word don't deserve this.

After a while, one gets a little tired of fucking with vegetables.
3562067 There's 'people who have a lesser grasp on the main points of the English written word' and then there's 'I could eat a bowl of alphabet soup and shit a more grammatically correct sentence than anything in here'.
If someone's being *gasp* TOO MEAN! on the internet, then someone else might need a thicker skin.

Argument goes both ways, it's only the way you put it when you're the one who's defending being unnecessarily harsh to people. Why is it that everyone else has to comport themselves in a manner that fits with being treated poorly by you, when you don't need to go to the extra lengths to insult and/or attack them? What makes you so special and above-ken that everyone else needs a 'thicker skin' when you push yourself upon them?
Regardless of what answer you give, the actual answer is they don't. You don't need to be like that to people who don't deserve it - the fault rests with you, not anyone else. Please try to have a little human decency (I'm quite aware how rare that is, yes - no need to point it out). Now... if the writer was a total asshat and is lashing out at people? Go for it - absolutely destroy their face, as far as I'm concerned. But that's not the case here. Is this story badly-written? Yes... yes it is. I'm sure someone will come by who feels like helping this person clean up their writing and get set on the appropriate path. Can we at least agree it's just not a necessary expenditure on your part? Even you have a point past which your thick skin won't protect you, after all.

You certainly don't need to tell me that. I'm not that different myself, just that I long-ago realized that nothing gets solved by trolling them when they haven't earned it. In such cases, I simply keep my mouth shut and move on to another story. Sometimes a few pointers if I'm feeling helpful, but otherwise it becomes a non-issue due to not showing up and thinking the world would be better if I laid down an ass-beating on a newbie who just doesn't get it yet.

Okay, that made me laugh.

"Hard s plus apostrophe only" is an old rule. Nowadays, either 's or the apostrophe alone is considered correct so long as it is applied consistently. I'd like to point out that Strunk & White, the APA, and the CMoS all prefer 's regardless of how one pronounces the possessive. There are also some messy sets of rules that deal with unstressed syllables and unpronounced sibilants, which is why I greatly prefer the consistent and easy-to-use policy of sticking with 's no matter the case (excepting its, of course).
