Another interesting experiment here at Treeleaf. Thank you Jundo.

I personally am going to go reread some Jane Austin and make note of how to spin paragraph length sentences full of whitticisms...

The gentlemen pronounced him (Mr. Darcy) to be a fine figure of a man, the ladies declared he was much handsomer than Mr. Bingley, and he was looked at with great admiration for about half the evening, till his manners gave a disgust which turned the tide of his popularity; for he was discovered to be proud, to be above his company, and above being pleased; and not all his large estate in Derbyshire could then save him from having a most forbidding countenance, and being unworthy to be compared to his friend.

Too excessive - the forum already has a post length limit!

See also: William Faulkner (at times).

Anyone ever read Nietzsche in the original German where run-on sentences are quite common? Some of his sentences would span 2-3 pages. No joke!

How long until people start breaking up long posts into 1/10, 2/10, etc. like they do on Twitter?
