    "Aspie porn" - stuff we really love

    Verb charts for my favorite languages could look at them all day We have all been there, right? I mean, who hasn't snuck a peak at a cholan or yucatec grammar and thought to themselves "Whoa, would you look at the adverbial particles on that one!" Don't lie. We all do it.

    Why All The Love?

    I dunno. I doubt you're as bad as you say you are, but from my limited experience (especially with young people) you can get away with being a jerk as long as you are funny. Maybe you're clever enough to get away with it. I had more friends back when I was more of a smart-ass. I think young...
