It's funny. Laugh.
My boxen have been infected by virii again. I should of patched them I guess, but there in a rediculous state now, so I have nothing to loose.

Post your examples [or is that example's? ;-)] of grating Slashdotese here...

  • That's a good start. You forgot site/sight and than/then. And horrible running sentences with little punctuation. Or, sentences with, too, many commas in the wrong places. Or calling SCO CEO Darl "Daryl", or mixing up Mindcraft (paid-for MS benchmarks) with Netcraft (web server market share). Ocassionally you also see mixing up "come on" (or c'mon) with "common", but that might just be a language issue for non-native english speakers.
    How's that for a start? I might be back with more.
    • so I have nothing to loose

      Forty lashes with a wet noodle, Todd. "Loose" != "lose"

    • site/sight and than/then
      True, though the latter I've done occasionally as one of those typos where you think you're typing something and you end up typing something else.

      That happens "alot" ;)

    • Oh yes...
      ...mixing up Mindcraft (paid-for MS benchmarks) with Netcraft (web server market share)
      Not to mention all those complaints about how the RIAA just wants to make us buy DVDs, and the MPAA forces us to buy their music...

      • Except Netcraft don't measure market share, because market share is measured in money, and Netcraft don't know how much money is spent on running each domain name. Or at any rate, they may well measure market share, but that's not what their headline number is.

        Netcraft measure "DNS Namespace Share", because they count domain names.

        Don't believe me? Then why did MS market share drop from 30%-odd to 20% just because some domain parking companies moved from IIS to Apache? Parked domain names should hard
