Oh, this is so wonderful!!!
From eye of a cat’s LiveJournal:
>look at stack It's not getting any smaller. >pick up essay You lift one essay off the pile. >read essay With trepidation, you lift aside the cover sheet. Suddenly, the world around you seems to melt away... Hell You are in a maze of twisty little paragraphs, all alike. The path ahead of you is littered with sentence fragments, left broken and twitching at your feet as their pathetic spaniel eyes implore you to put them out of their misery. Dangling modifiers loop happily through the branches overhead. In the distance, that sound of undergraduate feet has turned into a heavy, erratic thwump - swoop - THWUMP you recognise immediately - it's a badly-indented long quotation, and it's coming closer.
Go there. Read it. What a treasure!
(Thanks, Steve!)
