There have proven to be many ways to if not circumvent my pointless, idiot wrath, then to at least minimize it. New girl here is using one of the more effective ones: pandering to my grammar/punctuation hangups.
5kater invented a totally new one -- he invented a fake account with which to troll himself so that we'd all come to his defense. Pretty clever.

We can all troll 5kater. Precedents have been established.

Capitalization matters. Spelling matters. Punctuation matters....we don't want this place to start looking like 4chan or your little sister's text message inbox...Asking noobs to type correctly is, to a certain extent, a litmus test...Meatheads and assholes are unwelcome here, and traditionally a meathead or an asshole will quickly show their colors when they are asked to do something that they are not capable of doing...I am an unabashed grammar nazi, and I am an Admin, and I told you to. As a fearful newbie, I appreciate your sentiments, Gramma. I must say, I have a love-hate relationship with the Grammar Nazi thing. I was utterly terrified for years to post on this board because I was sure I would mess something up and receive mocking of epic proportions in return. However, I am also a Grammar Nazi in real life, so I am thankful for the grammatical standards that have allowed me to glean a great deal from these boards despite my cowardly lack of participation. Thus, I promise I'm not a Meathead, I hate texting lingo, and I hope I pass the litmus test so I can perhaps contribute something useful rather than just lurking. All that said, is it totally nerdy to post the introduction profile dealie that initiated this thread years ago? I was going to do it, but it appears it is not 'done' with much regularity these days, and I don't want to go about making things more difficult for myself than they already are as a newbie. tl;dr. LOL. Noobs!

For the record, I was brutally honest and I'm sure I will be hated for some of my answers listed. There have proven to be many ways to if not circumvent my pointless, idiot wrath, then to at least minimize it. New girl here is using one of the more effective ones: pandering to my grammar/punctuation hangups. The pandering is merely coincidental. I truly am a Grammar Nazi in real life. It's part of my job description. Actually, nevermind. Consider it pandering, as I don't have the skills to effectively fool anyone with a fake account or any such creative means of avoiding wrath. Don't reject me!

Also, anyone who can go between Hank III and Burial is alright by me.

Oh thank god. I just looked, changed the post, then realized I actually WASN'T posting in the wrong thread. Phew. See? You guys are terrifying! More frightening than the crowd at a Hank III show with country AND metal sets!

Dudes, let's get matching jackets and become a threatening gang. Capitalize on this whole "scary" business.
