What is the thrill, exactly?
Dropped by to check the Haloscan comments, as I do occasionally to see if I've missed anything, and sure enough, some odd person took it upon him or herself to show me their exact level of illiteracy in a running series of comments on a set of posts a year old. Why? What purpose does it serve?
I realize that for children (or young adults who have moved out on their own to their mom's basement) there probably is some sort of thrill about spewing anonymous gibberish, but I promise you, there really are better things to do with your time. Maybe take a walk. Ride your bike. Ask your teacher if you can help her clean the classroom.
Just remember, no one will ever take you seriously if you type in all caps, if you are unable to spell, if you have the reading comprehension of a banana, and if you are unwilling to engage in a conversation without hiding. Such naughtiness gets you banned from commenting, and gets your silly yammering deleted.

Posted by: skinnydan at April 21, 2005 01:51 PMIt wasn't baby Jay, was it? He was awfully grumpy this morning, and the poor little guy hasn't had any formal education... He DOES seem to be able to find the caps lock, though!

Dan, I know you are but what am I? (Hey, I can be immature with the best of them!)
Posted by: Terry Oglesby at April 21, 2005 01:58 PMYour ability to be immature I was certainly not worried about.
Posted by: skinnydan at April 21, 2005 03:08 PMYes you were.
