After seeing [[The Next Epi-Snowed]], I know that if I accidentally hired him to work for me on one of my endeavors on or off Youtube, it would end in disaster. "Blaa-bye, kids! The Pearl Wretch thing has been fired, so bll-I'm taking over this set!" [[#The List|(top)]]

This is especially common on Youtube. A person will ask me about one of my videos (or edits), and then another person will ask me the same thing without looking through the comments or the description (or in this case, probably the talk page). I respect the curiosity of others, but I wish their curiosity was enough to look around about it. No offense to any individuals. [[#The List|(top)]]

So far, this hasn't happened much, but one time I was ready to edit three separate pages with useful insight, and I couldn't post any of them. In fact, I was in a bit of a hurry, so I had to forget about saving them as text files and let them dissolve with the RAM that was cleared when I turned off my computer. I did manage to retype them all, as Chrome has QUITE a long history record, but it was especially annoying when I couldn't tell what time the maintenance would end! (This also goes for Youtube) [[#The List|(top)]]

Like Professor Tor Coolguy, I am not the happiest with bad grammar. Until recently, though, I had never seen anyone use "what" as a relative pronoun, in place of "that" or "which" or "who". At first, I just thought it was a single mistake, until I started hearing it in professionally published content like advertisements and shows. Example: "Oh, you mean [[The Umpire]]? He's the guy '''''what''''' likes to [[all the time]] talk to [[The Announcer]] when no one's looking!" [[#The List|(top)]]

It's the Wikipedia article on gramophone records. That includes 33's, 45's, 78's, acoustic and electric, EP's and LP's, and even turntables... in short, it needs to be split into at least four articles. However, I do not feel the need (or have the desire) to edit a page on Wikipedia, especially with its strictness about references. [[#The List|(top)]]

That has happened plenty of times to me. For example, Sonic CD (for PC) does not run on Windows XP, so I have to run it on a legacy PC.

Watch about thirty episodes of any 1960's Hanna-Barbera cartoon and you'll probably notice it (unless it's one of their "sitcom" shows, those usually vary in plot). Huckleberry Hound is probably the best example, as there are at least three episodes where the antagonist is a dog and Huck has to get the dog to leave before he can accomplish a task, ultimately letting the dog win all three times. Also, Warner Bros. cartoons after 1964 are similar in that regard. Luckily that doesn't seem to happen in Homestar Runner cartoons. [[#The List|(top)]]

1.

After seeing The Next Epi-Snowed, I know that if I accidentally hired him to work for me on one of my endeavors on or off Youtube, it would end in disaster. "Blaa-bye, kids! The Pearl Wretch thing has been fired, so bll-I'm taking over this set!" (top)

2.

This is especially common on Youtube. A person will ask me about one of my videos (or edits), and then another person will ask me the same thing without looking through the comments or the description (or in this case, probably the talk page). I respect the curiosity of others, but I wish their curiosity was enough to look around about it. No offense to any individuals. (top)

3.

So far, this hasn't happened much, but one time I was ready to edit three separate pages with useful insight, and I couldn't post any of them. In fact, I was in a bit of a hurry, so I had to forget about saving them as text files and let them dissolve with the RAM that was cleared when I turned off my computer. I did manage to retype them all, as Chrome has QUITE a long history record, but it was especially annoying when I couldn't tell what time the maintenance would end! (This also goes for Youtube) (top)

Why would I hate that? There's nothing wrong with that! It's the greatest! It's changed my life and I know it's probably changed yours, too! I don't hate it! I DON'T HATE IT! (top)
