Well done, ogged. Keep up the good work. Now on to Amazon to plug my book.

I predict that Salon will stay afloat. However they will not stop at one pop-up ad per day. It is a slippery slope on which they tread; soon I will have to wade through several advertisements for "Closer" (a movie that I predict will star Natalie Portman in a most satisfying role) just to read Tom the Dancing Bug and that zen-like advice column they have.

Tweedledopey, I find your assumption that there is any difference between the way men and women spend their time extremely sexist.

"Amen" is not a sexist ejaculation, but might be wilfully mistaken for one.

my ejaculations are all sexist, or at least cockenvaginminded.

I need a bookmark folder called "text coins a word". I've been trying to find that other word you were recently trying to squirt into the blabstream, but without success.

The other thing I can't find is the comment where ogged, or possibly young ben, impresses upon his interlocutor the virtue of leaving clever comments unexplained, on the assumption that everyone can then bask in the mutual tacit getting-of-the-joke.

Yes, but there's humor, too, in pedantic overexplanation.

isn't that a 100% percent increase?

Don't you just hate it when people write "100% percent," or for that matter "$100 dollars"? I can't believe w-lfs-n has had almost three years to point this out, yet has failed to do so. For shame.

There was one before you started commenting, SB, when I asked for restraint in response to something Sue's partner Kriston said. Different from anything that's been linked so far.

That's odd. I just got a message saying I was blacklisted, yet here's the comment. Also I see that a month ago I knew this was here. Oh well.
