capjamesg epoch +=42 ?
#
epoch I dunno. like ++, but more.
#
[schmarty] capjamesg: are you proposing that loqi do something about "++" ?
#
capjamesg epoch :D
#
capjamesg [schmarty] No, I was more interested in the presence of a literary convention.
#
capjamesg I wonder if I could have a "personal communication style" guide on my wiki.
#
capjamesg Like "here's some things I may do in text".
#
capjamesg ++, more semi-colons than you may expect, always in formal sentences in work contexts.

[schmarty] jamesg dot blog slash idiosyncracies
#
[tantek] what is a personal dictionary
#
Loqi It looks like we don't have a page for "personal dictionary" yet. Would you like to create it? (Or just say "personal dictionary is ____", a sentence describing the term)
#
[tantek] hmm, thought we had a page for that
#
epoch oh
#
epoch I kind of want to make one of those now
#
epoch and serve it over dict protocol
#
[tantek] here is an example: http://ian.hixie.ch/bible/english
#
capjamesg Also tsw.

#
capjamesg PSG = Personal Style Guide?
#
capjamesg "Refer to my psg for more."
#
capjamesg (brainstorming)
#
[tantek] style guide (syntax & grammar?) seems different than vocabulary
#
epoch HDP
#
epoch humpty dumpty page
#
epoch https://thebackupbox.net/~epoch/incoming/humpty-dumpty.jpg
#
epoch somehow already had that image made
#
epoch guess the topic of personal definitions for things has come up before
#
capjamesg [tantek] Yes, but I'd make it the same page with different headings.
#
[tantek] good point capjamesg, Hixie's page does include both syntax/grammar and vocabulary

#
[tantek] [KevinMarks] that post links to https://sundials.org/about/humpty.htm which is a 404
#
[KevinMarks] that was pretty much epoch's meme page iirc
