When typing in Word, doing a double hyphen makes it turn into a dash.  Here, it doesn't, so it looks somewhat weird-- I don't especially care. 

are you bitching about keels choice of character display???

Umm, no.

I was speaking in terms of keyboard usage.  In terms of anal grammatical correctness, a hyphen is shorter than a dash and is used to join compound-words and separate syl-la-bles of a single word.  That distinction has disappeared with the advent of typewriters, however, because no one wants to use "-" for a hyphen, "--" for a minus sign, "---" for a regular dash, "----" for a decrement operator, "-----" for an en dash, "------" for an em dash, "-------" for a horizontal bar, "--------" for a double decrement operator, and so on.  :roll:


As someone who started out as a typesetter a long time ago, it's a nice blast from the past, seeing "the rules".  Being a stickler in printed material or formal online articles is one thing, but I see what goes on here as casual conversation. Have a swig of whatever tax avoidance, vegan moonshine you're homebrewing, unbunch your panties, and get the hell over it.

I love you, Joy.

Is this water from a well, or are you supporting the local government-operated water department?

Wait until he realizes he can't use the internet without government force (common carrier laws).

This was just taken today by a coworker of mine. New tavern pipe with some aged black cavendish.  :)
It's actually a bit dated in that I just got my hair cut this evening, so just imagine me with shorter and mildly spiked/messy hair as in my last pic.

i wear a lot of eyeliner on purpose, to look mean. that way people do not attempt to make random chit chat with me when i am buying groceries... works perfectly.

*continues shameless internet hit on*

Also, I never quiet got why hot girls are so against displaying even common greetings. I mean, I understand them being more guarded, but many of them won't even give you the time of day. Sheesh. /mini rant

PROTIP - Never mention the word "Protocols" when discussing anything to do with Judaism.

I'm just sayin' is all. Never hand ammo to your critics.
