In a Manner of Speaking...

The point of applying labels to posts is to group them together and allow readers to see all posts related to a specific topic in one place. Many of the labels you can see if you scroll down a bit have been there since the birth of Only At IA, while others appear and disappear as I notice new and/or changing trends. For example, both Mr. Stibitz and Mr. Giromini started making more and more frequent appearances a while back, and now they each have a label dedicated to them. This is happening again. Allow me to explain:

I have a lot of fun finding new ways to talk. I like to invent new ones, steal ideas from other people, whatever, as long as I can find a fun new way to talk. For example, loyal readers will recognize these, and the rest of you can click the links:

-The Verb müst älwäys ät the End öf the Sentence cöme!
-In Soviet Russia, posts label YOU!!
-This is a single self-referential sentence in the midst of a blog post with the purpose of informing the reader of the creation of a new label
-And the word for this in English is "foreshadowing" and it is spelled
f-o-r-e-s-h-a-d-o-w-i-n-g.

So I've decided to make a label to tie them all together. So take advantage of it: go pick a label you find interesting and read some old posts - maybe ones you haven't seen before - and leave me some comments. Really, it's so much more fun for me that way.
