dear laurel,

Dear Laurel,

Could you limit the number of posts hashtag and busybody make each day? There seems to be a direct and inverse correlation between the quantity of their posts and the quality of the forum. It's keeping the lurkers lurking and not posting. One can be certain of this.

dear laurel,

the dancing banana seems a little less energetic lately. :nana::nana::nana:

tell him to speed up the tempo and get his groove on

ps

I've asked santa for one of these :D
 
Dear Laurel,

1.Could you offer suggestions on how to decrease the GB traffic and the no. of GB regulars?
Both seem to have declined a bit lately.

2.Also: thank you for putting up with my transgressions (lesson learned :rose:).
And for allowing us access to this awesome forum. One of the last bastions of non-PC speech.

I guess that the tongue firmly planted in my cheek was missed entirely.



Note to self: Do NOT mess with the Lit goddess of doom.



Laurel: Can I please have some more room in my banner for 1 more letter? Just an "e" at the end. Please?

I'd opt for turning that camera into a blunderbuss with the addition of the missing "n."
 
You know when you look at a word too long and you can't tell if it's spelled correctly or not?

I was drawn to your user Title by your comment and canon looked wrong to me and I was thinking of canon of law but then I couldn't decide if my remembrance was correct or not so I Googled and the first thing that comes up is Canon the brand and no mention whatsoever about canon of law.

It's fun how little tangents like that send me down rabbit holes reading things on Google or watching things on uTube

It's worse when you're editing a manuscript and you read words that aren't there or mentally correct the typos in the words that ARE there.

Our brains are weird that way.

Thinking of changing my banner to Loose Cannoneer. At least that fits & is speeled correct.

I am a pre-phonics whole-word reader. Makes me really fast, and not that accurate. Makes it really difficult to edit my own writing because I know what the words are supposed to be as opposed to what they are. I suspect that's probably true for people that sound it out but they take more time and are more likely to catch it.

I'm much better at editing for others.

Consider "Loosed Cannoneer" still fits and it treats you to that extra letter you were hankerin' for.
