Who told you to follow the link - you should know them by heart, like
the jokers who only tell each other the numbers of the joke, and if
nobody laughs it was an old one.
A-and if life's to short not only to drink bad wine but also to find
out what sb. intended — well, why read bad books, then? Why tell
anybody else that you ('ll probably) find it bad? Without another
reason than that you make excuses not to read it? (You should tell
that to your barber or your psychologist.) Other readers you should
show a bad sentence, a bad paragraph or only a bad chapter and state
your reasons why they are bad.
