So that it matches the order of the navigation across the top?

Capitalizing 'Member Since' would be good too, to match the other page elements. I'll go away and stop being anal-retentive now.

If this is going to be one of those kinds of threads, then "8.25.2006 Can a hermaphrodite impregnate themselves?" on the sidebar is making me twitch.

What about CamelCase?
posted by Fidel Cashflow at 5:13 PM on August 28, 2006

Wolfdog, don't go there. It's either fudging the gender or fudging the plural. Why prioritize one over the other, when the grammar rules are clearly just inadequate to the situation?

So it is hyphenated?
posted by cortex at 5:21 PM on August 28, 2006

The only thing that made me twitch about that is how strange of a question it was. I mean, okay, sure, I didn't know, but... .... what?
posted by blacklite at 5:21 PM on August 28, 2006

Can hermaphrodites impregnate themselves?
Can a hermaphrodite self-impregnate?

AskMe is #4 on a Google search for "self-impregnate", by the way.

If it's this sort of thread, the "jobs" link in the footer is badly indented.

If it's this sort of thread, I'm sticking my dick in the mashed potatoes.

You'll never get yourselves pregnant that way.

"Mashed potatoes" is just a polite euphemism, Wolfdog.

If they're that sort of "mashed potatoes", I'm sticking this thread in my dick.

Or cortex's dick?

MATT! KICKSTART70'S POOPING IN THE MASHED POTATOES!

I think we're well beyond polite euphemisms at this point.

I have soooo many hilarious and/or animated images screaming to be posted...

Maybe the favorites text should be rewritten. Currently it reads like this:
Favorites: 16 saved and contributions from Brandon Blatcher saved by others 19 times

Maybe like this:
Favorites:
16 saved by Brandon Blatcher

19 of Brandon Blatcher's contributions saved by others.

Yes, everyone's should read Brandon Blatcher, because it's a cool name.

Maybe it should be: 8.25.2006 Can hermaphrodidical individuals become pregnant through autosexual impregnation?

Oh, wait, what was the real question again?
posted by blue_beetle at 6:58 PM on August 28, 2006

19 of Brandon Blatcher's contributions saved by others.

False. You just changed the meaning, since it's not 19 things you wrote were saved by others, but that some unknown number of things (perhaps one) were saved a total of 19 times.

The text used to say what you have here, and it was pointed out to me many times as less than accurate, so I changed it.

Your restraint is appreciated.

I wish more people on MetaTalk just said 'oh' when they were clearly wrong.
