But seriously - Some basic punctuation adds massively to clarity.

In a fit of self-centered self-deprecation (I feel like Woody Allen), I'm going to nominate myself for Most Dyslexic. The topic title reads to me as "Porn Oscars". And I still often read "creationist" as "cartoonist".
In the category of Favourite New Poster Since I Rode Off Into the Sunset and Then Rode Back In, I nominate Granny Magda.
In the category of Glad He Came to His Senses, I nominate Hyroglyphx (which I read as "Hydroglyphics").
In the category of Most Missed, I nominate the Mighty Schrafinator. (I know she's back but I'd like to see her back more often - and with the old name.)
In the category of Most Mist, I nominate Dawn Bertot.

That's not dyslexia. That's what perceptual psychologist J.J. Gibson would have referred to as "the direct perception of meaning."

I'll second that nomination.
Edited by nwr, : bad typo (missing name)

Yep Granny def deserves a mention. Not sure what category I would put "him" in. Maybe the "Most deserving of a mention" category.
But both of you share the award for best "she" imposters.
I am still reeling form the revelation that there just are no females here at EvC.

Can we simply decide what gender we are now?

I switched to my current avatar based on a kind of "be gay for Valentine's Day" topic (started by a member named "Jaderis" if you're inclined to look it up). She suggested that we should all spend Valentine's Day trying not to specify what gender our partner was - something that gay people often do on a daily basis.
In keeping with my characteristic inability to follow instructions, I decided to become gender-ambiguous myself.
So, maybe I've been outied, or maybe I'm still innied.

I don't know everything. In fact I only really know one thing.
That I am always right.

I have the same problem though it is mostly under control, i still sometimes read stuff the way you do and write numbers the opposite way insted of 65 56.
