Our wings are not tired.

Right. I like Clean All The Things. Is that random?

We've been here over 2 months and have not yet done a full house cleaning. Now I've grossed myself out.

Hah. I have lived in my house now for FIVE months, and...you would probably be DISGUSTED OMG!

Always Anti-fascist!

I did not know you could make brownies without eggs. And my inner Namond, who, admittedly is never hard to find, wants to post "With all due respect, sir, fuck you," to mansplaining dude.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

I've been reading Clean All The Things like a title of something. Which, capitalised makes sense.

But we had an important Release yesterday, totally doesn't deserve capitalisation. Those are just noises in your head. Also, grammatically incorrect. Proper nouns, people.

Categorised yo mama jokes.

Really annoying song.

I didn't reply back to her that saying "good for a nine year old" was akin to "tall for a nine year old"--i.e. something I'm not actually interested in until it means actually GOOD (not the same as random capitalisation, FWIW).

Although I judge everyone, I judge you harder if you use Random Capitalisation or "quotes" for emphasis.

Hey! I resemble that statement.

Random Capitalization sounds different (you know, when the voice in my head reads it aloud to me) from bold and italic. So I assume they all mean slightly different things.

Yes, exactly. All of those forms of emphasis sound different. They do!

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.

Random Capitalization means Things of Import.

Bold means said forcefully.

Italic means... sarcasm maybe?

ALLCAPS ARE PADDYWHACK OR HULK OR MY INNER 13 YO.

YemphasisMV.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

ita, not just any 9 year-old....Willow Smith! Really annoying song.

OMG, what?

Yeah, absolutely. Pooh Case should be a Very Specific way of emphasizing Certain Things.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

Some people try it, because they think it will make them lose weight.

I would still classify that under medical reasons. Misguided, perhaps, but still not quite on the same playing field with a vegan/vegetarian/all-organic/etc diet.

Even at the extreme whackjob end of the fad diet spectrum, you don't get people with "WHEAT IS MURDER" sandwich boards chaining themselves to threshing machines - I'm just having a hard time imagining why anyone would think that someone else's GF diet means that they're morally opposed to, say, bread.

I can only conclude that I do not understand people.

(And boy howdy do I know about misguided pseudoscientific diets. I used to babysit for a woman who presented me with a mile-long list of things her daughter was "allergic" to, but every single symptom was along the lines of "Jane will be hyperactive tonight because last week I let her try some yogurt and she's allergic to dairy." No lady, Jane will be hyperactive tonight because she has ADHD and instead of taking her to a doctor you've put her on this crazy restricted diet PULLED OUT OF YOUR ASS.)

Pooh Case is grammatically incorrect and does not belong in business communication. You aren't going to shake me of that.
