This is a high-content reply and I love it! I am actually even letting big diction slippages go since we all have blind spots in our writing, and it's easy to learn something the wrong way. I guess maybe I shouldn't be complaining about the 20% of posts on here that might not meet my big jerk standards, but I think they stand out more because of the relatively high quality content of the other ones, and that's why I am not being completely out of line.
Probably some person I am thinking of when I wrote that is somebody who had a really bad fever when they were 34 and it left them with some moderate conversational impairment and they are actually trying to keep it in line and I am sitting here yelling at my computer going, "Stop typing like you're on AIM, you jerks!" AIM is what I use for messaging (Pidgin, actually) but you can imagine me shouting out the name of whatever IM client you choose in there. You can have me going, like, "Oh, man, this guy on the Mobile Read thinks he is on ICQ!" or I could be like, "You need to learn that this isn't Trillian logged into an MSN e-mail address screen name!"
Anyway, full credit to those keepin' it coherent and to the rest of you guys: you're okay, too.
