Interesting. So this would only apply to language that was used speculatively?

I have very poor impulse control. My overriding impulse is to do nothing.

I don’t suppose I particularly care that much. Just generally finding something to read online between Buzzfeed and Atavist feels increasingly difficult with everything trending more and more toward the Buzzfeed end. I’m just over the internet in general I guess.

My favorite bit in this gif? The tiny figure of Bugs jumping for joy on the SE corner of GA.

Is it, though? There are some tools online I find really useful. But as a source of news, entertainment or socialization it’s really pretty much a shit show from stern to bow.

Not for long. The only reason I’m still here is because I’m getting email updates. Once this thread fizzles out I doubt you’ll see me around here again.
O.k., so what is it about this thread that keeps you here? Maybe the way it’s all becoming about you?

People keep replying to me? But thanks for reminding me how quickly people become dicks on the Internet. I’m out.
You get out whatever you put in.
FYI, you can disable email notifications in your profile settings.
Also, I didn’t notice it before, so this greeting is overdue:
Welcome to boing boing, comrade!
