That (to my knowledge) there's never been a competitive word-smithing show says about all one need to know about this species.

I think we did, it was informally called Sentence Contest but most called it Twitter. Then "headlines" got lazy and angry - people lost taste for wanting to "be good" at writing things. Ricochets the importance/weight of those who DO like to write back unto them. So sayeth Zarathustra (haha)

There a bad "I smell the blood of an Englishmun!" in that somewhere.

fees are low, Google is still a foe, and fumbling the network config is constant. Now I want an English muffin.

Dang it, I missed out. The concision of Twitter was in the direction opposite of what did it for me. It felt like supping with mere typing mortals, yet the internet was a place in which I was hoping to escape mere mortals.

But of course the Eternal September "fixed" those hopes/dreams....
