Daily Random Flickr Blogging, #1331

Hmmmmm—where to begin? Well, we might as well work from the top down. For brevity's sake, we'll ignore the moral and rational shortcomings of the intellectual content (such as it is) and focus purely on grammatical/mechanical issues. (1) Hell, whether real or imaginary, is a place, not a "definition." (2) Normally, we would say that X is a definition of Y, not that X is a definition to Y. (3) "Flaming Faggot" is two words, not one word. While I disagree with what you are trying to say—or at least with what I think you are trying to say—I will defend your right to say it, and, motivated in part by the pitiable spectacle of three errors in an eleven-word sentence, I will even offer an amended version which is both shorter and clearer: "Ironically, flaming faggots go to Hell." What do you think?

This has been a public service message from Categorical Aperitif.

Sometimes it's almost too easy to make fun of these idiots... not that that will ever stop me!
