"It's WRAMBO WRITER, sporting a bandolier of sharpened pencils to drive through the hearts of unsuspecting comma splices! Laughing manicly, Wrambo Writer guns down cliches with ruthless efficiency, and a large supply of white-out bullets! Yes, WRAMBO WRITER IS HERE to save the day again!"
Obviously
a knockoff of Rambo, this character could be used to humorous effect by: a word processing program; a story-writing program; a writer's website, a writing webzine, a writer magizine, etc. I'd like to see a little humour in the editing.

Already HalfBaked (as near as I can tell) in the form of El Pedanto. (link) |
|

Thanks for getting the right category (as near as I can tell) though. |

Tragic. I thought it was completely original. But that IS a different name and a specific use for it, so.... |
|

Ironically, I used to think our own "Lewisgirl" was one of the best "Wrambo Writers" to be found. And though she could make a stone cackle, there was never anything remotely cheesy about her wit or style. I'm told she still looks pretty good in a bandolier, though she has forsaken automatic weaponry. |

ok break it up fellas, these are 2 different words/meanings here. Demonic and demoniac also. And sarcastic / sarcastiac. |
|
| |
"sarcastiac" what is that? The latest edition of the OED doesn't list it. |
|
| |
It does, however, list "manically" as "As if affected with mania; maniacally." |
|
| |
Sarcastiac: like an amnesiac. |
|
| |
manically: as if affected with mania
maniacally: as if a maniac
I think there's clear water between these two. |
