[Going off topic…]
Heh, one of my favorite things about the bbs here is the opportunity to try to figure out what someone might possibly mean by what they’ve posted—whether it’s typos, regionalisms I’ve never encountered, technical jargon I have to look up, or very often just people writing the way they speak rather than in complete sentences with proper punctuation as in formal writing.
This reminds me of a short mystery story I read long ago in some magazine that was in the lunchroom at my workplace. The gist of the story as I recall it was that someone was found dead at their workplace, at their desk, having been stabbed in the back. No obvious clues. The last words that the dead person had typed were just gibberish…until the investigator figured out that their hands were just one letter over on the keyboard, from normal placement…they had typed out the name of the murderer before they died! (I think it was a co-worker!
) Somehow that story made an impression on me and I’ve never forgotten it.
There sure are some head-scratchers here on the bbs, aren’t there?
I love every one of ‘em, weird or not. ![]()
