We have to see the chimp playing hockey! That's hilarious! The ice is so slippery, and, and monkeys are all irrational. We have to see this!

It's really rotten, Dana.

I did a major rookie goof this morning (easily fixed but embarrassing) and the lead developer was disappointed that I caught it, fixed it out and then admitted it to everyone: "Here, let me show you what an IDIOT I am." He was hoping to give me shit about it forever. I was informed I was no fun because I made fun of myself.

FINE THEN.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Uh, the carat doesn't work to make a quote anymore?

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Do you have a customised stylesheet? It still works in the default view: [link]

I haven't trusted science since I saw the film "Flubber."

Huh, I don't see the quote formatting either. I...will have to figure out what I did to my stylesheet.

I'm pretty sure I've never customized anything, but maybe? I'll go look back at your Press post.

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."

I never touched my style sheet, and I can't see the quote formatting either.

No, the only thing I've done is apparently make the text smaller.

Yeah, I don't have anything customized that would affect the quoting. I think something went funky.

All my customized sheet has in it is

img {display:none}

and the carat quoting isn't rendering for me either...

If you were writing a light-hearted anecdote, would you say "nationalist" over "patriot" when describing the guest of honour's knee jerk reaction to defend her country? I think "nationalist" is distracting. I'd even go with "jingoist" first, and that's not a nice thing to say.
