WordPress certainly has its challenges.

I don’t particularly care for its post editor- it’s WYSIWYG, only, er, not. For example, the last post was a meme I swiped at Geek Soap Box, and therefore I had to copy-paste it. Which was okay, except that I noticed it was acting kinda weird and making certain things bold when they really shouldn’t have been. So I dug into the HTML editor and was positively horrified by the mess I saw- I am a very basic little blogger, and I like unfrilly HTML, and this was… well stacks and nests and I think I saw a rat under there. So I just went through and fixed it up the way I liked it (well, a way I could understand and be relatively certain would work) and then it still behaved all weird. So I re-edited it in the stupid WYSIWYG editor, and finally bludgeoned it into submission, or so I thought. Damn if I didn’t hose the whole fucking thing up so badly that it bashed my entire blog template to pieces. I am STILL attempting to fix that bastard- and now this post is also giving me fits. I want another fucking line here. I hit enter, and it doesn’t put in a handy-dandy carriage return at all. In this spot, I get nothin’. Between my other paragraphs, fine. Here, not a chance in hell.

See? RIGHT HERE. I WANT ANOTHER GODDAMN LINE! ASSHOLE! (Ah HA! To get it to work, I have to swear at it.)

And then I come back to check on things again, and realize while looking at my post manger thingy that my “How Many 5-Year-Olds” quiz had been marked as a “private” post. (Yes, I see that I typoed “manager” as “manger”. I will leave it, it is my dorky Christmastime joke for you all. A post manger. Hah. Maybe there was no more room at the INNternet?) So apparently it was there for me, but not y’all.

I swear, it was the floor buffer. When I learned the floor buffer it pushed out the computer stuff I had in my brain.
