That's what I'm analyzing as we type.

You'd prefer not too? Sorry, I couldn't resist on such little sleep.

You'd prefer not too?

BWAH!

Ok. Well, that one-pager is written. Now to do my math. WOOT!

This rant has nothing to do with anyone at b.org, but dear heavens, would people on my LJ friends list please remember to put things like big graphics and 5,000 word rants behind cut tags? Also, while I understand that your delight and frustration over something might be best expressed by going "SQUEEEE....etc.....EEEE" or "NOOO....etc...OOO" for several hundred characters, my frustration and lack of delight at having to scroll horizontally to read my flist or get to my navigation links grows exponentially with each extraneous vowel you throw in there.

Oh, I've totally done that before, Anne. I always feel terrible when I find out what it did to my FL!

Heh. I've probably done it before, as well. Forgetting to put a cut-tag in is all too easy to do. What gets me, though, are the people who get huffy when you suggest that they lop about seventy "E"s off their "SQUEE."

I've done the long posts without the cut, before. Usually, once I check out whether it posted properly or not I'll say, wow, if I leave that up there everyone will scroll past because they're afraid of being bored to death. Then, I put it behind a cut tag because that makes it much more mysterious and people are liable to pop in to actually read it. Kind of like the naked lady versus the scantily clad.

Sending sleep~ma to JZ and good-labor~ma once she's awake.

Heh. I do much the same thing, Sail. Sometimes it's hard to tell how long something's going to be until it's actually posted. The posting window isn't all that good of a guide.

Yup, yup.

Pffft. Just sent my dad my critical response. He thinks it needs a conclusion. Pffft, I say.

"In conclusion, Bartelby sucked."

Next...?
