Ramblings of Narc

When the issue isn't confused enough.

Things to say to bad Internet users

I get really irritated by people who write every paragraph as one single very very long sentence that looks like they’re on crack and really can’t stop typing because if they did they would get taken away by the IRS man and then be forced to stare at a wall for 15 hours a day and the wall would stare back ’cause there’s mini-micro-cameras in the walls that feed to a huge wall-sized TV that everybody in the local town square looks at. *takes a deep breath*

For the girls among them, I finally have something to say: “You can’t be female, you have no periods!” Evidently, this can work similarly on a male (“You must be a guy [...]“).

I’m very amused by what that says about me… does it make me seem female? :P

On a more serious side-note, what irritates me about people who spell and punctuate badly is that I tend to be chameleonic, in that I pick up other people’s accents and such, and I’m terribly afraid of ending up with their bad spelling. And grammar. And punctuation. Which is why correcting them is therapeutic for me. So, um… anyone need a copy editor?
