I was thinking about all my news feed through Google Translate and got several times before sending them to the table.

maybe I'll just go for a more interrogative look though? that might be, maybe, less cloying? or not? just kinda put it right out there on the table that idk? and be just asking qs no matter what I'm saying? always asking questions?

going to start having more controversial/retarded opinions about music so that people feel the need to ask my opinion about every new album (in the vein of "hey Geir what do you think about this new Autechre album LOL peed my pants LOL"). also going to use the phrase "LOL peed my pants LOL" a lot.

Draai nu die plaat van Master en toch ook best lekker. M'n ouwe plaatjes op m'n 'nieuwe' boxen (vorig jaar van m'n broer overgenomen), is sowieso wel een belevenis. Daarvoor al die jaren die ouwe death metal alleen maar over m'n ouwe speakerset gehoord.

started doing this thing recently -- not sure what (if anything) the advantages are, and it doesn't necessarily look cool -- in fact I think it might not even be noticeable at first glance that there is anything different about the post, unless you have a really high concentration of dashes -- but man, is it easy to type a bunch of shit like this

Trying to break the all-lower-case-no-full-stops habit but it doesn't feel right for off-the-cuff posts. Also struggling with overuse of commas but that's less a posting style thing and more a vocational/grammatical crisis.
