1. I can't read
2. The dog ate my spellchecker
3. Ran out of coffee
4. I'm going nucking futs!
92. Didn't sober up
jdnlkkn,msaas sssssssssssssss
92 - 74
or 8
I think
Did the math wrong.
10. Thought I was wrong. I was mistaken.
11. For clarity.
12. For opacity.
13. For frothiness.
14. Too salty. Toning it down to be less inflammatory.
15. Not salty enough. Spicing it up.
16. Needed context.
17. Too much context, TLDR.
18. All the cool former posters now on (blecchhh!!) FB could return any second and I can't have the place looking untidy!
19. Forgot to mention Nosferatu.
20. Forgot to uncheck the "Mark as edited" box.
22. It's my fifth attempt and my image still isn't showing up.
23. It's a numbered list and I had to change my number because someone posted before me.

24. Forgot to add a link to my Facebook profile on the post!
26. Had to get new shinguards. New year. Can't be too careful.
27. That word didn't mean what I think it did...
28. My chaperone told me the original post made me look like a hussy.
29. Didn't get enough likes.
30. The prose was too purple. It went with absolutely nothing I had on.
31. Flavors, but none that the board was interested in.
32. I had absolutely nothing on...
33. Really, is it anyone's business?
35. I'm not sure it's good enough to post and have decided to focus group the message first.
36. affsssawrrrr… cat on keyboard.
37. The sun was in my eyes.
38. Google translate says my post is an offensive word in Azerbaijani.
39. My grammar checker didn't just reject it, it's still laughing.

41. My post offended someone who says that Azerbaijan is a sovereign state, that its people have a beautiful culture, that I was ignorant for not thinking that people in Azerbaijan have Internet access and might be Legion fans, and that I "am exactly what is wrong with this world".

This is why I save my internet smack-talk for the Amish. It's super-unlikely I'm going to offend one.
42. My post was offensive to computer-literate Amish people. Which, ideally, should be none of them, but you can't be too considerate.
The issue these days is offending people who think other people should be offended. My post was poking fun at the Internet keyboard warriors I used to see on Facebook, which is why I no longer read the comments.
happens a lot especially when someone asks an innocent question - may even preface it with - "sorry for asking, I don't get the point though, could someone explain?" and someone full of righteous fury comes in and lays on the smackdown...
43. My post offended someone who was offended that I was not offended!
44. Not enough righteous fury. Lemme drink this steaming glass of vitriol and try again.
45. 43% of the letters in this post were typed with my right hand, and as a left-handed person, I feel marginalized by this post! Ableist! Or something! You keyboards with your right-handed oppression of my people and appropriation of our letters 'O' and 'L!'
46. This post edited because there is *clearly* a crazy person at my keyboard.
47. Thought this was the "Reason for EDE" thread, and now my self-deprecating joke makes no sense.
I could edit the thread title... for a price.
48. I'm forever standing on the topmost rung of the thread, even though the sign specifically says not to.
(Ouch.)
49. Aliens.
That's what I put for now, until I think of something else that tickles my fancy...

If Lance's edit becomes "49. Puny Earthlings" then we know that they've got him.
50. Turns out reposting the president's miracle cures killed thousands. Time to airbrush posting history.
Ha ha ha! (Extremely jealous, and wish I'd thought of it.)
51. I wanted to exercise my retcon powers
52. My post still contained the tags from the website I'd lifted the quotes/lyrics/witticism/ quiz answer from.
53. I was flamed for not being "woke" enough.
53. I was flamed for not being "woke" enough.
Not long ago, I read about online knitting communities that had started as tolerant places, primarily focusing on their actual hobby, but descending into self imploding hate filled places of intolerance for those considered unworthy and not woke enough. As it went on, even the first wave of intolerants weren't considered woke enough and they were turned on. Thankfully, we have Legion World where everyone can feel free to have a favourite member of the Legion of Super Pets and a personal favourite hat or power for Jimmy Olsen to use. Or not be bothered with either of them.
54. Had to go back and pretend I was foreshadowing later events, to deflect from blatantly breaking quarantine rules.
A key political advisor here was considered to be more important than the rest of the population, in dealing with Covid19.
Knitting, of all things. Whew. I mean, it's a hobby. Or do the knitters gather around a Zoom call, gossiping about politics and religion while making their sweaters? Hope they don't stab anyone whom they disagree with, those things are sharp !
Oh, yes, him. That guy. He's definitely THAT guy, mister "no, I didn't ACTUALLY break quarantine and other people would have done what I did..."
Knitters are well-known for their radical politics!
Just consult A Tale of Two Cities!
You don't take your knitting to Madame Guillotine just for cheap thrills and macabre spectacles you know.
Next month: Young Phillip Fantom buys a pair of dusty spectacles from a run down seaside bric-a-brac store. Not normal eyeglasses, but macabre spectacles. Read the Boy with the Phantom Spex!
Reason for edit: Wanting to be closer to Art of Noise's Close to the Edit.
To be in England,
in the summertime,
with my love,
close to the edge.
Reason for edit: my cat walked across the keyboard and left a perfectly polite and reasonable message
The thread title was originally Raisin For Edit.
There are no reasons. Life is a series of meaningless, random coincidences.
58. All the best music video links got et, (probably by a jealous Galactus) and I need to meticulously restore each and every one, or die trying!!
59. More question marks in my posts that need to be edited, than a bumper sized holiday special of The Question.
60. Distracted when the cat had a hairball in the next room. (At least it wasn't right on the desk this time.)
