Twelve years and three months. I was about to turn eighteen when you started. I know, what I'll do, I'll go and read your ten first entries today. I am hoping for at least some embarrassing stuff of course.
So who is the Someone who is Wrong on the internet in this scenario?
Actually, perhaps it's me. When I went to get my stats, I was given stats about comments recieved (sic.) Everyone else I know who's posted their Banner of Statistics have "received" comments. Why am I not worthy of correct spelling?
I was assuming that the disparity between comments written and comments received was produced by People Being Wrong on the Internet and me reproving them righteously!
Or, you know, maybe reproving them unrighteously. Probably the second one, on reflection.
HOW can you get a mispelling on a standard templaty thing? That's WEIRD! Was all the rest of it the same???
It was the same, yes. I have just conducted Tesssts, and when I click the "share on LJ" button, the resulting post has the correct spelling. But when I click on someone else's post and get the full page of stats, it's got the wrong spelling. Odd.
I have the opposite disparity between comments written and comments received, which suggests that I'm Wrong On The Internet, and in need of reproving. Or else I'm just impolite and disorganised and rubbish at replying to comments.
(BTW, they were selling Hiver Beer at Osborne House today. I thought of you. :-D )

But I started internet with Usenet so I have faith in 12 years ago me that I probably didn't post anything *that* embarrassing. Probably.
*is alarmed* :-DDD

ETA But you have cute dogs to photograph, so that explains it!

I fear my pre-LJ life has mostly fallen away from me and been lost through holes in my memory, so those posts have achieved something!
