I may be accidentally doing so. ( that sounds odd out of context) But, did we all ever as a collective board group decide on what we're doing for the great inflate? Are we doing a single band or dinosaurs or balls?
I'm having a fucking brain fart and didn't find anything recent in my search bar.
Thanks peeps.
Squatch,
soon.

Thanks for the worthy poop. I'll be sure to bring my fair share of inflated plastic animals.

My inflatables are for Boys Noize, and trust me, I'll have a lot. So far we'll have giant rideable whales, alligators, and hippos making appearances. I haven't even started shopping for regular beach balls, but there will be close to 50, along with one gigantic beach ball.

My inflatables are for Boys Noize Yesss I was hoping someone was going to do something like this in the tent. I'll bring some assorted inflatable fruit to toss around as well.

I would have preferred a fun afternoon dance set on the Bigfoot again, but there is literally no one worthy this year. Should be fun to try in the tent though!

There is a chance that reghawaii might one day become a board regular, liked and respected by all.
Right now, he is just a guy who has made two posts about diapers.

Well, given his seemingly non-existent grammar skills (or at least an aversion to question marks), I kinda doubt it. I was going to give him to benefit if the doubt and suggest that his Shift key might be broken, but he was able to capitalize the letter M in his first post. So, no, I don't think he's long for this board at his current pace.

Our board could use some diversity, thereby I am offering my full support and mentorship to our first openly Reggae member.

I definitely doubt it. I have to say, though, that it truly is a relief that my commitment to the highest possible standards for grammar and punctuation are shared by the majority of the people on this board. Nothing rankles me more than being obliged to take the time to read something written by someone who couldn't be even be bothered to put a capital letter at the beginning of their sentence. Lack of punctuation, LOL-speak, run-on sentences cobbled together with improperly used ellipses... All of these things fill me with rage. But nothing gets to me as much as an indifference to proper capitalization.
HAVE DIGNITY.

Especially considering that typing is being taught in literally every single classroom in the western hemisphere at this point -- something that I didn't have. I learned the other day that typing is in fact being taught in place of grammar and sentence structure in many schools. So okay, the occasional superfluous comma, whatever. It happens. But to willfully disregard the shift key, like, that requires a determination to completely override the muscle memory which is inherently gained in the very early stages of learning how to type.
To me, that says that you WANT to be regarded as an imbecile. I find it incredibly easy to accommodate that.

But nothing gets to me as much as an indifference to proper capitalization. HAVE DIGNITY. Greetings, I am eager to engage you in linguistic debate. It appears that you favor prescriptive grammar over descriptive grammar, an opinion I consider most ill-informed. To start, I shall attempt to make it clear what I mean by prescriptive grammar as opposed to other types. A prescriptive grammar is a set of rules detailing how someone (whoever made those rules) thinks a language should be used, whereas a descriptive grammar is simply a codification of how a language is actually used by its speakers. In the context of this debate, descriptive grammar is an acceptable and less harmful alternative to prescriptive grammar; however, I should not be construed to be arguing expressly for it. My argument is comprised of two stages: First, that prescriptive grammar is largely unnecessary in modern times, and second, that it is harmful to children, and especially to minorities. These conditions (assuming I fulfill my burden in demonstrating them) should be sufficient to make the case that prescriptive grammar does more harm than good.

That wasn't in MLA format; I'm afraid you'll have to try again.

This is how all newbs should respond to us ragging on their lack of punctuation and failure to find their shift keys. Maybe you will last, reghawaii.

Awww damn, really? I was hoping we lucked out and he was better than his diaper posts suggested. I never even thought of checking if that was just copy/pasted from somewhere on the internet. Oh well.
