The last day of the year.

 31/12/24.

I just reread Peter's (aka The Curmudgeon) latest self-congratulatory post.




I heard that he's thinking of changing his blogging name from The Curmudgeon to Mr. Perfect.

The first thing that is standing in his way is proofreading.
Let's check out his latest post for accuracy.

1) Can you find it?

Well, The Curmudgeon couldn't. Or perhaps The Curmudgeon Ink welcomes sloppiness.


2) Have you ever played tennis tennis or rugby rugby?

Is there such a thing as tennis golf or netball rugby?
I might have a game chess wrestling. (Notice too, the absence of 'of'.)

If I were giving a report card to The Curmudgeon's blog, I'd simply write, "Sloppy. E+. Learn to proofread before you start judging other blogs."

Okay, okay, I was generous with the E+.

By the way, out of all the other blogs TC seems to have rated Robert's in first place. 
Well, I assume that this comment means he is rated highest, "The Curmudgeons Inc.ⓒ judging panel awarded high points for its modern layout, minimalistic prose-style, edgy photography and this wrap-up which provided a classic Trent Horn quote."
That's maybe because they're both probably MAGA supporters. 



Ciao tutti.
See you next year.

You’re using up perfectly good air that someone else could be using, you cabbage.

Okay, I'm off now to some big parties in Wellington. Will be late home (around 3am) so please don't comment too early on my blog.

Tomorrow, if I ever make it out of bed, I might try golf golf.

THE CURMUDGEON ha detto...

At your age and with your flatulence, putt putt is probably more appropriate.

For you, at golf golf, it's fall fall.
