It's so cheap and easy to communicate with people around the world that anyone can do it. This efficient medium is the internet. Through it groups of people can form ideas, and learn from each other, and we're all the better for it.

Unfortunately, the signal-to-noise ratio is pretty pathetic.

I was robbed!

 

BTW, Time actually put a *mirror* on the cover of their print edition. Kinda cheesy really, but I thought their choice was an apt one.

What can you do. :D

 

But there's still intelligent groups of people doing some really good things.

That's the worst thing I've ever seen...I'm Shocked.

the internet.
The internet? What the hell is the internet? Maybe you mean the Internet?

 

Wow, what an honour.
I agree, people who can't spell should be shot.
Wow, what an honour.

 

I realize that this is quite possibly a joke, and I don't want to sound snappy or immature.

 

However...

While you are familiar with the Commonwealth spelling of honour, as well as others (centre, industrialisation, and so on and so forth), Pangloss is a resident of the US - Florida, to be somewhat exact (at least according to his profile, which I have no reason to ignore). The US English spelling of honor is in fact honor.

 

Remember - this is a global forum. Think of things from a global perspective.

 

But yes, people who can't spell are extremely annoying.

Yeah, we had a war a long time ago so we wouldn't have to put up with all those extra u's and e's you guys like to put everywhere.
