    when it comes to the whole mess with WordPress and Matt Mullenweg, one theory I’d like to see examined more closely is that an evil magician perhaps used a “dumbass curse” on him as revenge for a careless act at a coffee shop or child’s birthday party. There’s even no saying how long ago this happened, or if it’s possible that it’s happened multiple times and the effects stack

    a baffling modern internet behavior

    is people on Twitch insisting that they cannot possibly interpret sarcasm without a specific emote added to the end of a statement, ESPECIALLY since the same people would insist that the emote is a somehow-working version of the classic "no offense". Sarcasm is a weapon and it should be wielded as such, not lumped in with bad manners that should be ignored

    instead of working on octobug this weekend I

    • cleaned the garage
    • went grocery shopping
    • cleaned the kitchen three times
    • set up, and learned the routine for, the new basement dehumidifier
    • played video games with friends on the internet. TWICE!
    • ate at Fried Egg I'm In Love
    • took a nap
    • watched Ben-Hur (1925) for my movie club

    "Wow", you might say. "A life well lived." and you'd be right. except--

    now bcj is reblogging things too and I haven't implemented h-entry support yet!
