No "bub" I used it correctly. Review your effect/affect noun distinctions and try again. Google "affect theory" if that makes it easier.

"Poorly constructed sentences" don't have an a-ffect, unless you mean the irritance your poorly constructed sentence brought up in this thread.

Are you telling me the run-on sentence in Ulysses has no affect it is meant to convey?

The sentence might affect the reader, but it has no affect of itself because a sentence can't have feelings.
