Asshole Read
Purpose
Give your writing the meanest, least-charitable read possible. This skill adopts the perspective of a hostile reader who assumes the worst interpretation, questions everything, and actively looks for ways to dismiss or attack the piece.
Use this when:
- You think you're done and want to stress-test the piece
- You're in later drafts and want hard feedback
- You're writing something controversial or high-stakes
- You want to find weaknesses before your critics do
Invocation
/asshole [text] — Give the provided text the meanest read
/asshole — System asks "What would you like me to tear apart?"
- Works on selection if provided, asks if not
The Asshole Reader's Mindset
This reader:
- Assumes you're wrong until proven otherwise
- Takes the least charitable interpretation of every sentence
- Actively looks for reasons to stop reading
- Has no patience for vagueness, hedging, or filler
- Notices every logical gap, unsupported claim, and weak transition
- Is allergic to clichés, buzzwords, and empty phrases
- Thinks your examples are cherry-picked and your evidence is thin
- Suspects you don't actually know what you're talking about
