I had to re-edit my last post several times for html and spelling. In the course of re-reading it, I realized... sometimes I don't provide the best context for the links. I just kind of... throw them out there. I don't know. It's how my internal monologue goes (and I don't exactly self-edit much), but it doesn't do much for getting people interested, necessarily, does it?

Anyway, we'll see how that goes. I'll probably be a little more self-aware as I write, at least for a little while or until I settle into a slightly better style. Anyway. Well, you have to change with time, might as well improve, right?

Also, an interesting exchange on Twitter:

I make a EEEEEEE-ful post about two baby bunnies playing chase with eachother behind KFC.

That warrants said reaction, no?! Baby bunnies are fucking ADORBS. Cue this random response:

CapsCop @mercat You know someone was fired for typing in all caps

Oh... 'kay...

Unfortunately I reacted a bit too quickly with:

LOOKS LIKE I DON'T GIVE A FUCK. THIS ONE'S JUST FOR YOU :]

However, snarkily;

1) Yes, I did know.
2) What the fuck does that have to do with anything? Does this look like a professional's sensitive tweet-stream? Hell no!
3) (I'm pretty sure it's a bot anyway.)

and then I realized... 4) No punctuation.

I really hope they respond again so I can call them on that. The fundamental law of grammar errors on the internet: if you call someone out, you are doomed to make a mistake as well.

Haha, suck on that, person who has no life other than to harass people for using all caps!

Seriously though, this is the internet, when the hell did capslock become a crime?

lj, grammar, internet, twitter
