This is self-explanatory. Its easy to abusively/destructively/negatively/offensively criticise. But the same scums - can they take criticism - similar or otherwise. Ponder.

Hello! My dear Idiots! I am your nemesis, a Bad Egg.
I love to cri cri criticise. My name is grouchy Greg.
I can tear apart anything in just a very few moments.
I will make very very sure you never get over my laments.
-
And never never never think I am ever on my last leg.
For I will come out ever stronger. Just look at poet Meg.
I took pot shots at her. Bull-shitted her lovely poem.
She quit the site for ever. And gone is her poem Phloem.
-
I love to see you cringe. I love to see you beg.
For I am grouchy Greg. I love and love to brag.
I will never read your works but I will ever rate them negative.
For this is my sole speciality. For this is what makes me positive.
-
And if you ever cross me, I will swat you like a clegg.
Beware of what I can do. For your works I am a keg.
You will think I am mad. I may think I am insane.
But what the bloody heck! I am no boon but a bane.

Bubbly. This one is actually timely. It's a slap in the face of pseudo-critics. Death to them. I don't know when last I laughed so heartily. I will read it more times. This is totally totally creative. But I expect nothing less from you. I want to see the beetroot red faces of these bullshit critics now. Atta girl!
Posted: Jul 6, 2008
Yesterday, I clicked on the poem but it was blank and it was not even published. So I thought to wait and watch. And I was not disappointed. For I received your invite today.
And I am not disappointed in the poem either. You've hit the nail hard on its head. These ignoramus fools deserve this fate - to be consigned to dustbin.
A very understated humor. That's what lend charm to this poem. As you say, Yo to you.
Posted: Jul 6, 2008
you have made a good point here. personally I like as much constructive criticism as can be thrown at me. however, the whole reasoning for me is if the comments are constructive. in return I like to give out the same myself. having been in a writing class and heard my own work being pulled apart I do have sympathy for people on internet sites. it's very easy here to destroy someone with no comeback. why this happens I don't understand but there are always people out there to spoil things for everyone else. hope all this makes sense and keep up the good work!
Posted: Jul 6, 2008
haha i like it..lol
Posted: Jul 6, 2008
A thorough delight. I loved it, I loved it, I loved it. Even the offending words sound sweet. You have created a masterpiece. Had I not read, I wouldn't've known about these "critics". Now, I want to throw stones at them and send them to gallows. Or better still, consign them to flames. An absolutely delightful read. *-*

Posted: Jul 6, 2008
Hmm...very thought provoking. A bit of a quirky poem but i actually like it. It's interesting and different. Good job
Posted: Jul 6, 2008
a whole new prospective to the matter from an egg point of view
loved it :D
Posted: Jul 6, 2008
Totally brain-storming. I was rolling over my bed reading it. I can imagine the faces of these critics. If one of them wishes to comment on your poem, what will he or she say. You have already made mince meat of them. The rats've deserted the ship.
A VERY VERY APT TITLE. I looked in the dictionary for the meaning of bad egg. So I came to know why you titled this poem so. How did it strike you, my dear. But you are a good egg. (pun intended). This poem leaves me speechless. Let me gain my voice and I'll come back again. 1000 cheers to you.

Hey, Bubbly. I trust that you aren't trying to chill citicism of your or other's works on Booksie. I like this internet site because it is a place where writers can put their pieces on display precisely because they want to get the opinions of others in their boat, so that their writing will improve. Otherwise, it's just an ego trip. I have yet to see on Booksie a purely negative, as opposed to constructive, criticism by one of its members. This would be foolhardy, since the "bad egg" would only get payback in kind from his peers. An example of a "helpful" suggestion - what means "For your works I am a keg"? And, since the Bad Egg always does his dirt intentionally, I would change "I may think I am insane" to "you may think me insane". There, a little critique of the constructive variety. So please don't call me Greg.
Posted: Jul 6, 2008
ha, nice (and I use "nice" very loosely haha)
Posted: Jul 6, 2008
OK that was really preppy....I don't really get it. Not bad, I guess. I can't really judge because I don't get it.
Posted: Jul 6, 2008

a little differant but good

Posted: Jul 6, 2008
First of all I must respond to an earlier comment made by the so-called "Best Egg." Bugger off! Nobody wants a negative pissant trashing their work. How would you feel if some little snot who didn't even know you came and vandalized your apartment, just because they don't like the way you look? Mmhm, yeah, shut your hole.
Now, I must say to Bubbly that I love this poem! It harks strongly of the way I felt through the majority of school because I was your proverbial athletically challenged nerd. I love the way it flows and has such an upbeat, satirical feel to it. And "Best Egg's" sad little comment just proved your point perfectly. This site is about helping one another improve through support and encouragement. NOT about senselessly trashing people.
Posted: Jul 6, 2008
It was almost like a rap battle lol!! very good

That was fab!
Interesting concept :)
Posted: Jul 6, 2008
Interesting...but I loved it, I think we all know bad eggs in everything, whether it's writing, sports, singing, dancing, acting, cooking, the list goes on and on. This was really great Bubbly.
Love Always,
Erin

I clicked on it yesterday and it wasn't up yet for some reason but I love it.
Posted: Jul 6, 2008
Did somebody hurt your feelings, Bubbly? I'm all for helpful hints and being corrected when I'm wrong, but that is completely different from people saying things just to be hurtful. Hope that's not what happened in your case.
Posted: Jul 6, 2008
I'm not sure what to think... let alone what to say.

hmmmmmm bubbly, what happened to the bubbliness! and where exactly are you going?
Posted: Jul 6, 2008
I am commenting on the comments here-my, how some individuals have taken to this poem, or taken offense to it....I think it's fine, bubbly, and you expose certain individuals, but I don't want to talk about that...I have been reading all of the comments, and it is unbelievable how some people are insulted, offended, pessimistic, or even a little gung-ho, by "taking sides" I know u know, and they know what I mean-this poem really got a REACTION-so I think that's awesome....to those of you who take it personal, I suggest you don't...a mere point proven(and how is it "preppy"- labels are just another way of projecting insecurities)....
Posted: Jul 6, 2008
bubbly......there are certain fights in life that require a lot of energy and thought, and then there are other fights that just aren't worth it..best egg is wrong, but don't be their judgment....it's not worth it

please check out my essay (not really an essay, but whatever XD) "Response to the Bad Egg" and tell whomever you want....i don't think it's my right to ask others to come look at it cuz it involves you, but i hope you like it either way (and if you want it deleted just tell me okay? ^^-)

Hi Bubbly, this is Lovely.Hi there awesomepoem.Speaks about what you do with others' posts. 90% of the time you don't understand and write rubbish comments as if you are worlds'most intelligent person.Hilarious point of view of yours.
Try to keep your precious thoughts in your pocket.
you are a bad egg in booksie.
U have very very litttle brain of urs, use it carefully, if it's gone, what would u do?? READ IRWIN's comments.AWESOME.I loved his comment.
Why
Posted: Jul 6, 2008
But what the bloody heck! I am no boon but a bane.
Indeed I am a pain. Indeed, I am a pain. (in the arse/butt!)
Balls to these pseudo-critics (listener's words).
Posted: Jul 6, 2008
Hellow Bubbles. You've sent the rats scurrying. They've nowhere to hide.
Nameless and faceless morons're passing destructive comments. Guess, they are embarassed to reveal their true identity. Or they'll be skinned alive.
Whoever this best egg or lovely (or ugly) is, they escaped easily without being identified. Why are they scared. I guess, their conscience is troubling them. Scums, indeed.
Since I've faced the barrage earlier, I'll be replying to these comments, if you'll allow me. I've faced it first-hand. Who better than me to handle them. I'll show them the mirror. Is anyone inviting them to read or they want cheap publicity criticising (on the go.) No one'll ever read them so OFFENCE IS THE BEST FORM OF DEFENCE. This is my show now.

Bubbly this is a wonderful witty write in my view. On this site I have experienced an Abusive "Al" (sour grapes I believe? Alas, one of the "not so good" eggs you speak of) and some wonderful "cri cri" critiques who I welcome whole heartedly! On the whole booksie writers are most supportive and I love those who come out and say the truth (heck I didn't like that at all, comments)
Posted: Jul 7, 2008
I agree With Anna....very WITTY indeed.
I liked it! But what's so sad is the fact some of
these comments aren't critiques, but like Anna says, abusive. How sad! Some angry people out there.......
Bubbly, you've always been very impressive to me....I like your writings. But I know I need to catch up with yours, and I will. Have a great week!
Posted: Jul 7, 2008
I like it miss bubbly but i betta get a author's response back cuz hmmm apparently someone has been slackin on the other people's haha
nicee poem !!

This is interesting!
something new i must say!
Posted: Jul 7, 2008
Who is Greg? I don't recall reading anything of his.
How can I comment or criticise?
The poem itself is a comment on a would-be commentator.
Cleverly done. I LIKE IT.
I wrote a similar comment poem about a booksie member. Although i Didn't have the courage to name him/her in the poem. It was a comment on someone or another who were compalining about people reading without commenting. It's called: "The Booksie Wussy". Check it out . . . if you dare.

Donna is right. I belong to booksie.Idonot want 2 reveal my identity because this is not a forum for fight & it is a forum where people should not be biased and inspect bubbly closely.Please donot get biased,she may be your best friend DONNA,but she is not to most others,she has criticised my writings and when I never asked her to read also,i have always appreciated her work and sincerely did till she started adding her nasty thoughts on my pure thoughts.She may not have done that to you,but she did for me.there are so many elderly writers here to whom she has been mean and disrespectful.some of them like Irwin left the site.Donna,open your eyes and see the truth.she is not what she seems to be.She has this tubular vision which she wants to impose on others'writings.I loathe her not because she criticised mine in mean words, but because she is deifinitely not a good person whom so many loathe.Interact with people who are being hurt by her remarks and mean comments. Who is she to judge others?thatis what I am asking. why she is on my page when I did not ask her to be.Why?
read Irwin's comments carefully and stay away from people like her or else you would also become like her.
Posted: Jul 7, 2008
The format and way you go about speaking in this poem is very interesting. I am just mainly talking about I think I saw some double negatives in this poem. If I am wrong sorry you can sue me. Not sarcastic just playing since text doesn't determine tone of speech. I would not say it is one of my favorites of yours. I still think it is a good piece none the less. Cheers
Posted: Jul 7, 2008
Wow, bubbly, another great poem. Now I can understand my critics (assuming I have them) with better sense.
Posted: Jul 7, 2008
This was very interesting! I never thought of people as bad eggs but now that I think about it...
XD Just kidding. But seriously, I really put it to mind what a negative comment can really do to someone. And how spoiled milk can really lose its flavor. (Pun intended!)

Canadian. When you have already written a masterpiece, why are you shying away from answering these comments. Don't disappoint me. I am eagerly waiting to read your responses. NO, don't delete any comment. Answer all, even the scums. I want to read befitting replies. Then alone I'll comment on this poem. Go ahead, answer time has approached.
Posted: Jul 8, 2008
i like it but its a little peppy.
Posted: Jul 8, 2008
Hey! I thought about writing this comment in a poetic form. But then decided it was too against the norm.
Nice piece! It's difficult when people don't respect an authors work, but perhaps it's better than nobody looking at your work. I'm not sure. Good poem!

Posted: Jul 8, 2008
On the surface this is a silly poem, but (as is evident by the comments) actually packs a powerful punch. Isn't it ironic that those who have reacted so negatively to the poem are just proving your point? I heartily enjoyed this one, Bubbly!
Stephaene :)
Posted: Jul 8, 2008
You have begun a bit of a rolling debate here Bubbly! I was a bit shocked when one of my latest poems got a silly comment originally (sadly for the anon commenter it went over my head!! He/she asked me if I was a "something or other" - I have forgotten now, sounded rude - but what surprised me was that the comment came up but the counter claimed I had yet had no reads. How could that be? So in answer to Rogue Hat Co. if someone is logging in simply to hurl abuse - probably without even reading your work - that is not the sort of person(s) we want logging in.
In so saying since I have been deleting the rude comments instead of making litle replies back they have in fact stopped (touch wood) so maybe ignoring them is the best policy.
Posted: Jul 8, 2008
Hey Bubbly, what an interesting poem! Wish I had read it earlier. Thankfully, I have not encountered any bad eggs so far on booksie (probably because I haven't been posting much stuff lately), but looking at the comments, many others seem to have faced them. I can certainly sympathize. To every author, their work is precious. And all of us have different styles of writing - to some, poetry requires a particular form, to someone else, something else matters. It's best, therefore, to just refrain from commenting offensively on someone else's style just because we write differently. Constructive criticism is a different ballgame altogether, and it improves our writing. But trashing something just for the sake of it is most deplorable. Yes, I do agree that such bad eggs should be shown their rightful place in the garbage. Cheers to you!
Posted: Jul 8, 2008
bad eggs stinks! hiya Bubbly! you have the courage and creativity to bring positive energy into everyone. keep on going sister!!
Posted: Jul 9, 2008
Hi Bubbly. I agree with many of the above comments.
It looks like Booksie is degenerating into a BUNFIGHT!You are a talented writer. Let's move on, and get back to writing. RICKY.
Posted: Jul 9, 2008
Would it be too much to ask that we all get back to writing and reading and stop this ridiculous, childish bickering? If this continues, we are going to lose many talented writers who don't want their time or creative talents wasted, dealing with this silly, foolish crap!!
Posted: Jul 9, 2008
Hello,
i honestly dont know what to say Bubbly. Who is this Greg any way and who did he denigrade? from the comments above i could see how angry everyone is, I mean what kind of comments have elicited such a response. To tell you the truth i have always tried to offer constructive criticism myself, you my dear know that because i have always pulled no punches reading your work. And i have always had the feeling that people actually appreciate honest feedback, I know i do.
This bad egg must write very offensive stuff to get everyone so wound up, but Bubbly let me tell you, if you roll in the mud you too will get dirty, dont give such morons the time of day. They just do this to get attention and by giving it to them you are actually doing them a favor. So chill Babe LOL.
Posted: Jul 9, 2008
Sorry to see you leave the other site my dear. I shall remain and fight off the hordes until your triumphal return!
Not been on here for a while, but posted a new entry the other day.

Good Egg
(not registered user)
Definition of a BAD EGG: An individual who turns out to be rotten, as in You can't trust him--he's simply a bad egg. Although egg had been used for various kinds of person (young, good, bad) since Shakespeare's day, this transfer of a seemingly wholesome food that, when opened, turns out to be rotten took place only in the mid-1800s. An early definition appeared in The Atheneum of 1864: "A bad egg ... a fellow who had not proved to be as good as his promise." In contrast, the schoolyard saying Last one in is a rotten egg does not have any special significance other than as a way of urging others to join an activity, jump in the water, or the like.
----
Meaning
Someone or something that disappoints expectations.
Origin
The allusion is clearly to the disappointment felt when shelling a boiled egg, only to find that it is bad. The earliest use of the phrase in that context that I have found is in the Milwaukee Daily American, September 1856:
"Mayor Wood is moving heaven and earth to procure his renomination. One of his dodges is, to get up letters in the newspaper, pretending to emenade from 'distinguished citizens,' including merchants, mechanics and working men, soliciting him in the most pathetic terms to present himself to the dear people. There are also on the list a number of notorious blacklegs whom Woods keeps in pay. He is a bad egg."
---
A bad egg is somebody you can't trust because they are dishonest. A good egg is the opposite - a person you can trust and rely on.
---
a person who is bad, dishonest, or unreliable; a good-for-nothing: a bad egg who had served several years in prison.
---
A person who cannot be trusted is a bad egg. Good egg is the opposite.
---
KEEP IT UP, GOOD EGG.

Thanks for inviting me back Buddy...i never knew u had faced so many problems ...after reading ur responses above, even I was shocked to know that you are facing nasty things...
i have a feeling these r the people who know u very well...some of ur own friends who know that u would react to it...as Azmat said, IGNORE them buddy...when they won't get reaction, they won't write...
I know it is very very difficult...but try it and for sure these guys will back out....don't fall in their trap...they r using such language to provoke you...
This Poem is very nice...no no....GREAT and the PERFECT ANSWER...i can see the bad egg boiling and seething...
So, you relax now and just delete their comments or post them without any response for all of us to comment on ur behalf...u don't answer, let all of us answer for you...we would do it ...and then the bad egg would be quiet...
i am sure Bad egg is doing this to get attention....
Thankfully, so far i have not encountered one, everyone in booksie (including you) )have been very supportive and have accepted my unusual way of writing....
Thanks for being there for me....I would love to help you in any way u want...
U relax now...okay?
P.S. This poem is too good...
Posted: Jul 9, 2008
Im guessing maybe this poem has some background to it that im not aware of ;)

Bubbly, I have visited this posting more than once and I have to say that I am appauled at the utmost rude and down right mean and visious comments by some members. I am literally embarassed for them.
I appologoise on thier behalf weather they like it or not. I have just had it. I can not believe thier behavior.
I know it may not do any good but I agree with Anna Therese, this type of behavior is of a forcefull nature and gets worse when it is fed. This lashing out creates nothing but indignant ills. it is not becoming of any individual and should not be addressed. In my opinion it has to be ignored. but that is me. In the long run this will make a person physically ill, negative emotions are the biggest cause of heart, lungs and liver failure.
Bubbly again, I am so very sorry that some members have chosen this behavior.
I can not say that enough right now.
Hang in there and the storm will blow westward,
the sun shall shine eastward, and that is the way we will go ^_^

Hiya Bubbly, Yoo HOOO...see so many of US really love you...

Cheer up and keep smiling all the time....
I never knew about cheap comments and snaps...honestly...i had thought it was only comments regd non-accpetance of the poem/short story etc..
But this is so sad and cheap for sure and IT HURTS...I agree with you....IT INDEED HURTS...
Don't worry, My mom says, "those who hurt someone's soul for any reason, GOD will never forgive them"

Hello Babs. This is poetic delight.
This is so different from "Comment Queen". There, you were willingly doling out cheerful comments. Here, some nasty and irate souls are out to draw blood. But for, what.
Two poems from the same poet reflect two different moods.
Here, we have space for everyone. There is no reason, some bad eggs wish to trample on anyone to raise their level of mirth. It's about time they were tackled. Or they'll think, this is the done thing.
The poem has hit the bull's eye from the responses I've read above. It should. Keep up this effort and save someone's reading day. Cheers!
Posted: Jul 12, 2008
What a lovely poem. Look at the miniscule number of bad eggs - irwin, best egg, lovely, gerabel and look at the tremendous number of supportive comments. That says it all. Keep your spirits high. And the bad eggs'll die a natural death.

Faabuless, darling.
With humor, you made something,
Naturally nasty,
into something upbeat.
Continue the hard work!

like air we breath
water through fish's mouth and gills
like dust in the air
you get them everywhere
stinking as they are
never let them
spoil your tasty life.
good piece bub

Bubbly, Applauses to you big time.. If a person is willing to give criticism he or she should be able to receive it as well. It's nothing wrong with criticizing if it helps the person in the long run. But we have to watch out for those so-called critic who deliberately set out to destroy the spirit of others by picking their art apart. You know what I think, I believe those bad eggs are jealous because they know they STINK.

Bad Egg - you know you're dying
for all you are is hydrogen sulphide
and your shed tears will
forever be without crying
and anyway you only
have the very rotten on your side.
So go and spread your vile stench
and leave undefiled the sprightly rose
You are just the ogres wench
So go swiftly to your dank repose.
we'll hoist a glass
at your passing
a black mass
to curse your wicked
and uninvited
trespassing
Sorry .. ran out of steam there at the end ..
no hard feelings
You get my drift .
All our lives are assailed by bad eggs.
I blame it on Eve..or the serpent .one or other .
Please indulge me but what the hell is 'lol'
and the other acronyms you people use .
Im an old timer.. well 59

That is the truth. There are bad eggs in the world, but also there are hollow eggs that leave good comments but never read a person's work... I despize both.

I liked your poem as it is a reminder to all of us that not all people are "Good Eggs". After reading you poem and some of the comments and opinions that were made, good and bad. I can see that your poem has touched some nerves very deeply.
Everyone is entitled to their opinions, good or bad and the right to express them. But, when they just write to call then dowm and try to bring tears to someone, then maybe they should sit and take a long hard look at themselves for clearly they have some dark and deep insecurities of their own.
The "Bad Egg Gregs" of this world will always be there to challenge us with their simplistic and self righteous attempts at making a person feel bad so that they may find ways to make themselves feel good.
Maybe they are there to make us strive for more, to keep going, and not give up? Just my opinion!

I have to disagree with you this time...criticism is just part of being a writer, and as for me, a photographer as well. I just thank "bad eggs" for their input because even if I don't like what they say, everyone has a valid opinion.

Had my fair share of them when I wrote reviews for GameFAQs. There's a clear difference between being a constructive critic and being a bad egg. Constructive critics usually know what they're talking about. Great poem!
