Two minor gripes. First - I have been noticing a lot of people writing comments or articles lately that end in the question "no?". It is as if we have had a sudden influx of people wanting to sound "international" or something, like they are ESL when most likely they are from Illinois. So many things are now written like this: "It seems like a pretty good idea to get out of Iraq, no?" No? Yes? Wait, I am confused. Is it a good idea or not? Are you answering your own question? What the hell are you trying to say? And my second nit: Don't people get the fact that the more extreme you are in your leanings - the more damage you usually do to your "cause"?
incursio : clash, collision / attack, raid, foray, invasion
An Attack on your sensibilties, Collision with society's norms, Raid on information, Foray into the unknown, and Invasion of my privacy.
Or something.
Maybe just stuff I like to write about.
