Jeff was out scouring the internet for more of its glorious gold when he encountered a number of sites talking about Anti-Semitism. Some of them had some rather interesting grammar and webdesign characteristics (you know what I’m talking about, don’t try to play innocent). And of course Jeff was a little confused about the whole situation. After all, who could be opposed to meaning?
Well, he found the site about Microsoft and the Wingdings controversy and thought, “Well, I could easily see Microsoft being against meanings, but what’s that star have to do with anything?” And Microsoft frequently is a tool of the devil to make our world bereft of any sort of cognitive ability (quick, when do you capitalize a word, other than the beginning of a sentence? See what I mean?)
And then Jeff went out to find out more about this whole Anti-Semitic thing; finding even more pages that we really wouldn’t encourage anyone to go to. Eventually, Jeff bothered to look the bloody word up and was a little horrified at the idea. He was thinking Anti-Semantic, and that’s something completely different. That’s what Michael Sheehan is. Anti-Semantic, not Anti-Semitic, although, he might be that as well. But I have no evidence of that.
Tune in tomorrow on your way to the polls (if you’re in the US, that is) for more fun and excitement with language and meaning.
