Do I detect a note of sarcasm? If so, good. Subtle sarcasm is good for the soul. As for those afraid to post their stuff, consider this:

I don’t undertake only those tasks at which I believe I will shine. Such fear-based reticence would limit my play and exposure to others’ play in a child’s game aimed at education. I risk encountering ridicule, and even welcome it sometimes, for the possibility of a shining insight. It’s hard to be sworn at or likened to all manner of disgusting things, but as long as sun glimmers from that pool of urine, I’ll endure the stench. Or as a lost friend once said, “Poemranker is a great resource. It is like a huge thrift shop or, even better, a gigantic landfill. If you don't mind getting dirty, there are many precious things to be found under some especially slimy, fecally covered toilet seat or unwashed, skidmarked underwear.” I’m getting all mushy and teary-eyed now.
