long sentences are indicative of a complex mind

This post is being written simply to avoid thinking of the next 100 word sentence to go into my 2000 word essay that bitchily deconstructs Sylheti identity from a Dhaka-like point of view, while expounding on the qualities of Brick Lane as a unique site in London's imaginary, occupying an unprecedented place in the topography of the relationship between Bangladeshi immigrants from Sylhet and Dhaka.

With all due respect for the work you are currently engaged in in the name of churning out an essay of reasonable significance and without offence to your academic sensibilities, isn’t it a little too convenient to presume that, when your overworked and extremely exhausted friend tells you that your uncontrolled verbal diarrhoea is indicative of a nuanced argument (instead of a meaningless outburst a la Lucky from Samuel Beckett’s Waiting for Godot), she is indeed telling the truth and not trying to get rid of you, or is it imperative for an endocrinologist to examine your reports and tell you that your periods are too far apart?

funny, i always associated long sentences to a rambling mind that crutches onto the pseudo pedagogy masquerading as literary moxie.

btw, nice picture.
