Oh, I don't give a damn 'bout my bad reputation!

[conuly]

Because apparently I don't have one. :( But I have a reputation, period. Yay! *twirls and hands out cookies* I'm cool. You're cool. We're all cool. And the heat broke (again) so I really *am* cool.

Anyway, this post has prompted two questions.

1. Can you guys see my titles on your friends pages? Because I sometimes use my title as my first sentence, but if you can't see it that doesn't work out too well.

2. Is ending a sentence with the word period and then following with the appropriate punctuation (a period) redundant?

It's the milk monster! It stalks children by using clever pictures and then... IT EATS THEIR BONES! Yes, milk does a body good... good for the eatin'!

1. yes 2. no

That's cool. I've done the random search a few times but never found anyone interesting enough to keep me reading for long. Maybe I'm just too demanding.

My results are always either 1. Russian 2. chtspk or 3. first time posters

Tres annoying. Especially since some of the Russians HAVE to be using chtspk.

1: Yes, I can.
2: Nope. Not that I know of.

I've found old online friends I've lost touch with by following peoples friends lists.

Cool. But not that hard, is it? *honestly doesn't know*

[joeymew.livejournal.com]

Not hard... more like random though. They pop up in the weirdest places, when you're never even looking.

1. Yepper.

2. Redundant, yes; correct, yes; a fun way to create emphasis, period.

[meteorie.livejournal.com]

1. Yes
2. No, because you don't read a period as period. You don't read a sentance as "blah blah blah period" or "blah blah blah blah exclaimation point"

[conuly]

How do you know I don't read "exclamation point"? Well, I don't, I read "exclam" but that's because I spent too much time being brainwashed by my mother.

Oops, I meant to add onto the second one saying that that was only what I do, at least. Exclam? Why?

*shrugs* It's some sort of proofreading word.
