Current You'd think after like 15 years I'd stop feeling like a fraud when writing posts but I still do which is both a statement on my self confidence and a compliment to how good my partners are as writers

I think 15 is overall seen as a good game.


Well....critically? For the most part. But within the fandom? Hah. No. But that's about typical for Final Fantasy at this point.
I'll toss a hat into the ring and then look awkward while no one else throws hats.
Time passed, Time went, Time goes, Time slowed, time stopped, but time dwelled on. One fish, two fish, red fish..." You get me right?

Does "Time passed, went, goes, slowed, stopped but dwelled on." Change literally anything about the cohesive structure of that sentence?


It's coherent either way but Seuss is using anaphora for emphasis, in this case that would be the repetition of time. There's nothing wrong with your revision of it, just that it loses the literary device. Seuss' thing has a rhythm to it and rhythm makes things easier to read or more easily memorable. For example, try clapping as you read the Dr. Seuss thing. You'll get into a 'one-two' rhythm almost like, say, footsteps. Time-passed, time-slowed, time-goes, time-slowed, time-stopped, but-time, dwelled-on.

You don't have that when you take out the repetition of the word 'time'. Sure, both of these work but one is more...let's say fun to read.

If that makes sense.
I'm gonna level with you here. I just saw '1910s anime academy' and didn't read the rest (yet) because I've never been sold so hard before. And I once bought a car sight unseen.
I forgot I made this. Suppose that makes for an effective bump as well as a metaphorical throwing of the dice again.
This seems relevant to my interests.
@Mara The way the cookie crumbles sometimes. But it was made red on purpose, errors in school papers or otherwise were often done in red for a reason. #Colorchoicesmatter :P (Just for possible interest.)


Yeah and in most school papers the red was on a white background.
