A moment[]

Can we take a moment to appreciate how good the Blogger Beware entries are? The wordplay is incredibly sharp, and the flow is smooth as butter. Even to this day, the blog hardly feels dated at all.

I still feel bad that some users from this wiki plagiarized writing from him and used it here. I hope that we can replace all of it. Sorry for gushing all over the place. GoosebumpsArt (talk) 21:20, October 2, 2018 (UTC)

I love his entries too, although I don't agree with all of what he writes. He really should write comedy articles and stuff like that, he is very good at it. He really knows how to use his jokes, and how to correctly word them in order to make them as funny as possible. All the references he makes to books, movies, and even people like artists and politicians, are a proof of his enormous culture. Troy, if you're reading this, you have the respect of two big Goosebumps fans. Murder(Talk); 21:53, October 2, 2018 (UTC)

Make that three. I think the peak of his writing talent is how he's able to create a perfect balance. He hates the books, yes, but he doesn't tear them to shreds, he backs up his opinions with reasonable evidence. It's a real shame he stopped writing.

I think he's gone on record as saying he really liked the original series, but he was also okay with poking fun at the ridiculousness of the books. The fact that we can't tell seems like a hallmark of good authorship on his part. GoosebumpsArt (talk) 01:58, October 3, 2018 (UTC)
Make that four. I think he was very clever with his jokes, but I find it annoying that some of the pages on this wiki (Bride of the Living Dummy, Slappy's Nightmare) are just stolen from him. Cackles woz 'ere... 06:08, October 3, 2018 (UTC)
