Joe Clark, do not get snippy with me! I am aware of what METAFILTER IS. I have literally been on the web blogging since like 1892. God, why does everyone think I’m retarded? I go over to print for four years and am patronized as blogger, leave my blog and am patronized by web peeps. I just want to live in PEACE.

However, I too think people should state things correctly. So thank you, Joe Clark, for posting a link and excerpt of my blog post on MeFi in order that the people of Metafilter might discuss it at considerable length. I was really interested in the comments, both in terms of the changing social understanding of the web and the changing understanding of SYNTAX, though less so the latter. Hope you will visit again.

“MetaFilter” did not “post your post.” I wrote an item about your post for MetaFilter, which is not an autonomous agent.

You know what? Although I have pruned, pruned, pruned my bookmarks, I never let go of my Old Hag link. Hope springs eternal. And, sometimes, is rewarded. Thanks to you, Maud and a few others, I may crawl my way back to being semi-thoughtful.

:::wild applause::: I’m with Maud. There are about five blogs in my feed reader that give me a jolt of actual glee when a new post pops up. Now that you’re back here: six.

Have you two ever met? Emily, Maud is one of my oldest friends from my blogging days. Maud, Emily is one of my oldest friends from my Hopkins days. Em, you should come down for the August 3rd Frankie’s meet and meat extravaganza! It is like TRADUCIONE at this point.
