Re: Hello All!!

En réponse à Stone Gordonssen :

2 things:
- how big do I have to make my smileys to make it clear that it's humour?
If ";))))" is not enough, maybe I should do ";))))))))))))))". Will that be
enough?
- what I wrote was a humourous *description* of the language I meant. I
thought you had learned a bit of French and that you would recognise it
immediately, especially since we had a discussion about my native language
being actually polysynthetic (begun by John Cowan) a few days ago. Sorry to
have been unclear. From now on I will stop to make any humour, since even
smileys are not enough to make it clear I'm joking.

Lately nearly everything I say is taken out of proportion and
systematically misunderstood. It may be a sign that I need some rest.
Between my looking for a job and the disease of my friend I have little
time to decompress, and nearly all this time I spend on the list, since
it's one of the only things that can cheer me up lately. But it seems that
I'm now not even welcome anymore here. If someone wants me to stay silent,
please say it. I'll restrain myself. If not, please try stop jumping at my
throat at every word I say that might sound bad in your ears. I'm not in
the mood to defend myself for every word I say. I guess you'll understand
why. Now thanks for listening to my rant and sorry for having annoyed you
so much lately.

You need a straight mind to invent a twisted conlang.
