But I hope most of all that MySpace falls into obscurity.*

First off, I think I should clarify a point about my supervisor's comment (see previous post). She hardly made any comments in the, ooh, 10 or so pages I sent her. That was the only typo-related comment. (One other that made me go arrrrgh was her requesting a table for this unbelievably complicated Stress Handling Hypothesis bit, asking for a table listing supporting and countering evidence, which is nigh impossible because no one agrees on anything and it's all circumstantial anyway. *rant*) So that "I don't understand this word" wasn't her being nitpicky or snide about my typo - one amongst many. I truly believe she just didn't understand the word. Which makes me go ballistics, because she's basically my editor, and if she can't figure out "destroued" is actually "destroyed", or what "demographic stocasticity"** means, then I'm just fucked.

Second, er, off. On a lolcat video, I wrote a comment, responding to a rather horrifed comment, clarifying why the pictures were riddled with grammatical and spelling mistakes. I mentioned "lolcat" and "lolspeak". Days later, thenicelordj replies with, rofl "lolspeak" it's called 1337 ffs, which had me go arrrrgh. Now, I may be wrong - but only in the "highly unlikely, for sooth!" sense - but 1337, or leet and lolspeak are different things. They use different grammatical rules and different spelling rules. They're different internet dialects. "For fuck's sake" indeed. *rantyrant*

I've got to read Measuring Sustainable Development: Ecological Approaches and come up with 3 theses. If your gut instinct tells you that's incredibly boring, give your gut instinct a cookie.

And once that's done: Lost! \o/

** While I do explain important or specific terms, I don't explain demographic stochasticity. Why? Because you can find out what it means from the words. But more importantly, I'm writing this paper with a particular audience in mind. And that audience knows damn well what a basic population concept means. *rantrantrant*
