Sometimes you just have to call a bully by the proper name and the retort was a great one, Hopefully a bully would be put in his place with a response like this one. Patricia

Technical stuff: 5-7-5, et al: All OK
Laughability for MY taste: Scowl
(on the scale of: Scowl, Eyes Rolling, PokerFace, Smile, Chuckle, Guffaw, Belly Laugh)
Cleverness: Good
Non-detracting elements (vulgarity, bad language): BAD
This piece has no appeal for me
Overall though it is Good

    Appreciate the input. I would point out that there were ample warnings attached as to the nature of the piece to spare those who might find it offensive. Doesn't seem fair that you would ignore the warnings and review it anyway to voice your displeasure over content. But, I can't say I don't agree with you. :)

    I was under the impression that all the entries had to be assessed by the writers/contributors.
    Sorry if i misunderstood.
    I am still pretty new here

    Oh. No, you don't have to actually review them to cast a vote though that is a great attitude to have indeed. It's more than a lot of folks do just giving each entry a read. Don't worry about being new, I was about a year ago. I was just having a little fun. I hope you didn't take it too seriously. :) I think you're giving a lot of consideration in your reviews and that's going to be appreciated. Most of the folks here are good natured. There are a few though... Ask questions and dive right in like you have. You'll be fine! mikey

Oh this is hilarious, author, especially the part about not wanting to offend anyone. :) It's certainly a little bawdy, especially the guy in the picture. But the bullied handled the bully just like a tricky dicky.

Best wishes to you in the contest.

Gloria

LOL. I bet some will find this offensive, but censorship isn't my thing. A nice take on pussy and dick. They make for a perfect couple. LOL. Wonderful humor. Good luck with the contest. Les

Yes, that would be a funny reply to a bully, but I think he better be prepared to run or fight for his life. A funny 5-7-5 and good on the count.

This is a really most wonderfully clever entry for this Humorous 5-7-5 competition, as you said, you didn't really need the warnings, good luck in the contest my friend.

No offense taken... This is awesome. Bullying is one of single most issues in our school system today. The way this reads, I'm loving the Nerd and laughing out loud in the face of the bully.

Great Job,
Julie

You have met the stated qualifications of this 5-7-5 writing prompt contest as to form and syllable count. Good luck to you, Jeanie Mercer

Digestively, a very true story. When an unwanted piece of flesh enters, bite down HARD. This is very well written with a smooth flow of words, making for a humorous read.
