"Your an idiot"

[tinpra]

So me and heroicblogger have been "going at it" about whether or not Bush can be wholly blamed for our financial woes as a nation. His stance is yes, my stance is that it sounds stupid to say that the entire economy of a three-headed gov't hinges on the like- or dislikeability of one man whether it's true or not. Like I said, me and he have been debating and, I think, we've been pretty level-headed about it.

Tonight some idiot posted an anonymous reply to my comment. At least I think they meant to post to my comment since it's actually a reply to heroicblogger. So assuming they meant to post to me, they started out with the current title of this entry: "Your an idiot." I'm sorry, I don't have any idiots just lying about, let alone one in particular. I keep reading the comment waiting or wanting to be offended...but I can't work up the steam. Between the bad title, not actually replying to me, the exclamation points, the not actually answering of my question of "doesn't it seem a wee unreasonable to blame one person for such a multifaceted problem?" I can't really take him seriously. I want to. I feel the beginnings of offendedness in there - but it just won't come.

Go fig.

Oh the woes of online grammar, spelling, and punctuation. I have to admit that I have butchered the english language a time of two. However...that was kinda scary. I mean...wow. How can you honestly expect to be taken seriously in a discussion like that if you can not at least capitalize your sentences.

My word count is looking a little low. Last night I went bowling with two friends who are in town for the weekend. As I sat in my friend's driveway to pick her up I thought, "I kinda wish I was at home writing".

Nano makes us horrible friends.

I admit that even as an English major, I've butchered the language on occasion, particularly online. On the other hand when I find myself in a serious debate, especially w/someone I don't know, I make sure to dot my I's and cross my T's and all that jazz.

as for nano...it makes us horrible friends. ppl invite me out to stuff and i'm just like "but i could be writing." last year a bunch of us went out for me and a friend's mutual b'day and after dinner and such all i wanted to do was go home and write. which no one understood so they dragged me out to a club. a club! can you imagine? trying to help me have fun when i have a wordcount to complete. :o

Who cares about politics - I think this person needs to take an English course.

Hah! Tell me about it. Maybe he was too angry w/my idiocy to even type properly. I dunno...maybe I should be proud of my ability to incite such powerful emotion? lol
