It's a fumblerule too:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fumblerules

The above Wiki Wrote:
  • "Never use no double negatives."
  • "Eschew obfuscation."
  • "Prepositions are not words to end a sentence with."
  • "Avoid clichés like the plague."
  • "The passive voice should never be employed."
  • "You should not use a big word when a diminutive one would suffice."
  • "It is bad to carelessly split infinitives."
  • "No sentence fragments."
  • "Parentheses are (almost always) unnecessary."
  • "English is the crème de la crème of all languages."

Fumblerules are hilarious.

Self-referential humor is just the best. Especially with the edition of it being used in an ironic way to demonstrate something, like with these fumble rules.

It's just the fucking best. The cat's pajamas. The bee's knees. The dog's bollocks. The mutt's nuts. The fertile turtles.

New fumblerule I just made up. Does this really say anything other than "Try to reduce being redundant and making tautologies?" Big Grin

Period). so they are decreased and reduced to make sure and double check and be certain that they are not redundant or tautological or like an unmarried bachelor or that they repeat or reiterate or restate the same point over and over on and on, filling your statement and your point and what you are saying with lots of words that basically reference the same thing and stuff over and over again and again, if you know what I mean, if you catch my drift, if you get what I'm saying.

...the scary part is that that just looks like me being normal LOL
