I have nothing to write about.
July 9th, 2007
This post is all about how little I have to say at this time. I am writing it, nonetheless, because I want to write something and there hasn’t been a new article here for a long time. So I am typing this and even as I do so I barely know what the next word will be. So far I have managed to type it in one continuous stream but I fear that soon I will run dry and have to stop for a think.
That paragraph break bought me enough time to work out that I should tell you about the thunderstorm. There is a thunderstorm here, you see, and it’s quite loud.
In a bit I will have to go back to work. First, though, I would like all comments for this item to begin with the words “Actually, you can do that because”. For example, if you wanted to tell me how wonderful you found this item, you might write:
Actually, you can do that because although you had nothing to say, you did say it very well. Therefore the idea that you can’t just write a blog post about nothing is unfounded.
I have had enough blathering and I will stop typing…

That was very Lemony Snicket-esque you should know. I did a smarmy shuffle after reading it. Total bligotry!

Actually, you can do that because you can’t do that and so in doing that you created some sort of swirly time vortex ad that just plopped throught the gap, going to show that actually, you can do that!

Actually, you can do that because swirly time vortexes were proved to exist by George Lucas, who found one in his Frosties one morning in 1976. So your theory holds water, Mr Hill.

It holds water?
Does it sell beer too?

Actually, you can do that because so far Ian has failed to start any of his comments in the required manner.
The above sentence was written in response to the voices in my head, which were requesting that he be hunted down and violated with spoons.
This is the only fitting punishment for having mocked this thread so viciously.

Actually I think you’ll find that indirectly I was directly getting to the point I was trying to make, and furthermore that was being made, in that whilst it might be proficient it’s neither compulsive nor ergometric.

Actually you can do that, because the aforementioned “that” refers to the brutal murder of Ian followed by letting a gang of Vietnamese lady-boys voilate his corpse. He should do as hes jolly-well told!

You mean :O Mei-Lei’s gang is on the prowl? Oh dear, erm, I best be off. If anyone asks all you saw was a small, mexican man with one arm. Possibly two. And a doitchmark.

Actually, you can do that because when I say “you” I am addressing the rabid ex-soldier with Gulf War syndrome who is now setting off out of the door with a sawn-off shotgun to pursue Ian for bloody revenge. He has committed the sin of ignoring commenting convention and will therefore pay the ultimate price.
