You call that a massacre? That's not a massacre...
Some people will wank about ANYTHING. I shouldn't be so surprised, considering the wank that happened over Hurricane Katrina.

However... Just so you all know, the incident at Virginia Tech is NOT a massacre, it's just a shooting.

And a quote from commenter spaceworrier: Pardon me, but a massacre implies something like gutting them alive at the same time and laughing and not being a complete nutjob. A massacre also usually involves a bunch of people, and it's not my fault that people can't use vocab properly these days.

Because, like, you know, these things are IMPORTANT and you plebeians should all be using proper English to describe horrific acts of violence.

Also, the follow-up of zomg I said something you didn't like! Complete with 'It's my journal and I'll cry if I want to' mentality.

I find that woman shallow and pedantic! Yes, shallow and pedantic.

I am trying to bring funny here. I am failing. :(

Don't feel bad, Fishie. Any attempt was doomed to fail, really.

Speaking of shallow and pedantic, I had a fully tenured prof. on the phone the other day trying to sort out our application database software. His hang-up? I said "cancel through the warning" instead "cancel out of the warning."

He asked me what the difference between canceling out and canceling through was. I almost lost the battle against laughing at him (as apposed to about him, which happens every time we hang up the phone in my office). Funniest ten minuted of my life so far.

I'm trying hard with the funny. Is it working? *crickets*

Of course there's always unintentional humor. *cringes at typos*

We knew you'd realise eventually! I didn't want to have to tell you :(
