A "tizzy." Oh that's nice. And then there is this one, who knows a Blogger's Duty, not to mention the only correct way to show respect. Gosh, I'm so glad there are so many helpful people out there who are ready to help us with all the minutia of life. I can't wait until the Big Internet Fight on the Correct Way to Hang Toilet Paper starts. (Not on my blog though. It's paper over, and any comment to the contrary will be replaced by an obscene limerick about your grandma.)

Posted by: Dave at February 4, 2003 at 06:00 AMI've come across a term that I like quite a bit when applied to items like those: kerfuffle.
Sounds every bit as meaningless and fluffy as the "argument" it is meant to describe.
Posted by: Tracey at February 4, 2003 at 09:42 AMOops - to clarify: I didn't mean to take the side of the commenter who called the shuttle post a "tizzy;" sorry if there was confusion.
Kerfuffle is meant to refer to the kinds of folks who get themselves into a "tizzified" state over what people should or shouldn't do in their own blog space.
Sorry--it's been one hell of a morning here. Bleh.
Posted by: Tracey at February 4, 2003 at 09:46 AMHeh. I still need more coffee myself. And I have to think up a special limerick about Dave's grandma now...
Posted by: Andrea Harris at February 4, 2003 at 09:54 AMWell, this Dave is a devoted paper-over man, himself.
