…is that the question?
It was the best of posts, it was the worst of posts. Bloggers of the world unite!
No, I have no idea where I’m going with this blog post. Apparently the latest grammatical faux pas is to call something you write on your blog a blog. As opposed to a post on your blog. Me, I’ve never been a slave to grammatical correctness but this whole kerfuffle strikes me as much adieu ado* about nothing. A tempest in a teapot. And don’t even get me started on the overuse of cliches. Personally, I avoid trite phrases like the plague, but that’s just me.
But seriously, I don’t see why this whole “blog versus post” issue matters enough for someone to actually to actually blog about it. Or to warrant writing a post on your own blog in response. I have a blog and sometimes I even write some worthless crap and post it here. My mother used to say “oh, I loved that blog you wrote today.” I’d dearly love to hear those words again.
Anyway, when I see something that strikes my fancy I’m liable to blog about it with a post like this. Can’t we all just get along?
*Thanks to Kevin Kim for noticing my brain fart. Sometimes I’m too smart by half. I knew what I was trying to say, why I wrote it the way I did is a mystery. Kevin generously would have let me play it off as an intentional gaffe, but when your wrong your wrong. And yes, you’re right, that last one was intentional. I guess it might be wise for me to keep y’all guessing whether I’m really that ignorant or just bad at being funny…
“Me, I’ve never been a slave to grammatical correctness but this whole kerfuffle strikes me as much adieu about nothing.”
OK, was “adieu” deliberate?
Items on this blog may make me appear more stupid than I really am…
