Oh yeah, and before some posse decides to flame me or tell me something (anything) about what a great guy this person really is and whatnot let me say that I have never read his journal, (probably) don't know him at all, and don't really give a damn if he is thee warm apple pie ov online journalling or what. My posts are to be taken as general comments/observations, not some sly way for me to call this guy a pompous motherfucker or something.
I feel the same way. I don't presume to know him, I just make observations based on the things he and his friends have said.
But I most definitely don't like when people are rude to Blu, especially when she's in the right. It looks to me like she's the first person to ask him why it is he writes the way he does, and he felt threatened that someone questioned what he thought was a really clever way of expressing himself.
*shrug* Eh. People say we Americans butcher the English language, but aside from spelling a few words differently, and the slang we come up with, it's a pretty baseless accusation. It's no worse than writing in a colloquial style.
