Scnatzle, I kinda like that word. Scnatzle, Shh-Nat-Zil. Hmm, very interesting. Very random, too. Just like this post. >_< I’m ranting. Ranting is fun, and very random. In fact, I kinda like ranting . . . Dunno why. Heh.

How do you have an up fall? I think I might use Scnatzle as a name one day. I dunno. Scnatzle. Scnatzil, scnatzle, scnatzle. I like saying that word. It is fun and random. YAY FOR FUN AND RANDOM THINGS!

I think one has an up fall by standing on their heads and then falling. It makes sense really, if you’re standing the opposite way than when you normally fall (upside down instead of right side up), then wouldn’t you fall the opposite way? And since up is the opposite than of down, then falling while upside down makes it an up fall?

I’m still ranting, but I wanted to get a post out, so it’s okay that I spent all of it ranting as long as I got a post out. I hope to get another post out within 24 hour. For now, however, good-night, good-bye, and SCNATZLE! (Who knew I was going add that in there?) *goes to sleep*

No I’m not talking about you my beloved readers. At least, I don’t think you’re rolling your eyes at me. Are you? Are you D::::? No, just joking, I don’t think you are.

ON TO THE POINT!

*Lots of caps, sorry ^.^”*

So, I lost internet connection the other day. And for a little bit I just tried reloading the page. Well, you might know by now my strange habits of noticing random and weird things. So I was watching the little loady thing and . . .

Well don’t ask me why, but I clicked ctrl-R (it’s how I tend to reload my pages) twice in rapidish succession, and the little green circle loading thing went to this hollow black circle, and in it was this solid black circle rotating around the black line.

Think about that for a moment. Well, whether you see it or not (which you probably do) I though it looked like it was a rolling eye. Was it suppose to look like that? I dunno, but it did.

I just kinda home it wasn’t meant to look like that to say, “Hey, you don’t have to reload the page twice in that rapid of succession.” ‘Cause that would be kinda creepy.

Now I have always had troubles remembering when to use i.e. and when to use e.g. So yesterday when I was writing my 101 post (a.k.a, the post below this) and was adding on the example part for step 9, I felt a strong urge to get it right.

So I went to Google and started researching. Fairly quickly I found exactly what I needed (I would have found it quicker, but I accidentally put e.i. instead of i.e. the first time *fail*).

i.e.

“I.e.” stands simply for “that is,” which written out fully in Latin is ‘id est‘. “I.e.” is used in place of “in other words,” or “it/that is.” It specifies or makes more clear.

e.g.

“E.g.” means “for example” and comes from the Latin expression exempli gratia, “for the sake of an example,” with the noun exemplum in the genitive (possessive case) to go with gratia in the ablative (prepositional case). “E.g.” is used in expressions similar to “including,” when you are not intending to list everything that is being discussed.

That’s the basics and the only thing I bothered to read, but there was more on the page if any of you are interested.

That said, hopefully I (and maybe some of you, dunno how much trouble you guys and gals have had with this) will have fewer troubles keeping this straight. I know I’ve probably done it wrong several times before, and there is no way I’m going go and check every post or what not for mistakes in this area.

Oh, and as a last note, now that you know what i.e. stands for, reread this title and see what it really says :P.

Okay, so this April I partook in a thing called Script Frenzy. Remember Nanowrimo, anyone? Script Frenzy, or Screnzy, is exactly the same, only you write a script instead of a book. The main differences:
