A man who can't use punctuation properly has spotted that I misspelled "Weird".
He is so clever and I am so stupid.
Well done Hemmingway.

BSR going one better in his plus fours this morning.
Or is he going 3 better?Bushmaster said:
I have never 'plus oned' and agree with BSR's point.
It is text-speak.
I find a heartfelt 'bravo there' or supportive 'hear hear' is much more in keeping.

<= look, there's a smiley for the specific purpose of agreeing!I'm not sure that it's the "+1" in itself that annoys, rather the way that so many of these PH "traditions" come from all the new boys desperately trying to fit in by jumping on a bandwagon (witness all the OXO, 335d mapped, etc. jokes).
Even on page 3 people were still adding "+1"s and variants thinking they were being amusing - BSR defused that in his first post and people still posted! All they were doing was displaying a startling lack of imagination and originality...

Did the machine remove the capitals from your use of the word bks... ITS ONLY A FECKIN POST, GET OVER IT !!]ks? Clever that, but it does somehow take something from your post. As if you're shouting, but you've dropped your voice over the word bks so as not to embarass yourself. 
I apologise, my nerd threshhold is clearly much higher than yours.I tend not to notice pointless things.
... which explains why i baaaarely noticed you had posted !! I was genuinely curious as to whether you had taken off caps lock for the word b
ks or not. Seemed a peculiar thing to do.blindswelledrat said:
Just because I don't post my lifehood achievements after each post because I somehow think it makes me better than others, it doesn't mean I don't have them.
On the contrary. You see, I have plenty of other achievements besides my qualifications, unlike you. SO it would be a bit strange to pick and choose all the things boastworthy to irrelevantly type after everything I do.

I love this concept.On the contrary. You see, I have plenty of other achievements besides my qualifications, unlike you. SO it would be a bit strange to pick and choose all the things boastworthy to irrelevantly type after everything I do.

NCoT, this feels a bit weird.
I saw your name on this list and thought "Oh, he's popped on to call me a again" and yet everything in the post seems to suggest that you agree......
FOr the second time on this thread I feel all warm.
I could call you a I saw your name on this list and thought "Oh, he's popped on to call me a
again" and yet everything in the post seems to suggest that you agree......FOr the second time on this thread I feel all warm.

I'd love it if my life was fking easy that I could get irrate about how people communicate on internet forums.
Go on, tell us how important & stressed you are.king easy that I could get irrate about how people communicate on internet forums.You don't need to be important or stressed to recognise that how people communicate on a internet forum really isn't worth getting worked up about.
However, I am going to relentlessly "+1" every single post I agree with forever on PH because of this thread. I can assure you due to my lack of importance at work that will be a lot. I shall pay special attention your ones "Escargot", if that is your real name, you pretentious would-be-French git.

Well done Hemmingway.
There is a difference between "can't" and "can't be arssed to spell/punctuate check my posts on the interweb when i'm banging out a flippant post".... can you appreciate that !? Well can you !?
Yes i am so clever and you could do with a combine harvester hair-cut !!
Thank you but my name is not Hemmingway, but for you and you only, you can call me Mr Hemmingway, if you like wiierdo !!
