Murphy's Law 8: College? What About It?

[Alagaesian]

Yeah, I'll go ahead and agree to the internet rule.

Said another way, "THE LEVEL OF TERRIBLE FICS IS JUST TOO GORRAM HIGH!"

The level of terrible writing everywhere is just too gorram high. It's just that a high percentage of the "professional" writing we read on a regular basis goes through an elaborate screening process that filters out most of the Mary-Sues and horrible writing. (Most. Not all. *coughTwilightcough*) Fanfiction, on the other hand, has no screening process. We're exposed to every single piece of crud a writer has the urge to "publish".
