I'm bad at guessing games but mine would be as follows
1. A lot can be said about nothing at all.
2. Words are as trivial as the person who uses them.
3. No word is fixated as a part of speech, it all can be twisted in
context.
4. Resumes are bullshit games.
5. Poetry can not be determined valid or good by anyone.
6. Getting published means jack and superiority complexes are based on
jack.
I think that is all I can come up with at this late hour, probably missed
the point anyways. I do love sharp pencils so love to hear the real
point sometime down the road. Seems interesting that this was for
a purpose and not just an exercise in extremism.
