Toothpaste And Grammar

My dad is simply amazing! Sure, everyone's dad is amazing, but you just gotta look at this one.
There's this post on his site(You can view it by clicking the title - it's a link to the page) on which he talks about the usage of toothpaste, and how you really don't need as much as you probably use.
Sure, you must be thinking, "Yeah, OK. So this guy's dad figured out what's being taught to us in high school. Pssht. Whats the big deal?" The thing is, the entire post(And its a mighty large one) is just ONE SENTENCE!! It's simply brilliant! Even if you copy-and-paste it in word, it will not show up as a gramatical fault. it's pristine!
So I guess Posting(Is that accepted? - The capital 'p' I mean) is as much an art as Painting, or Archery, or Karate.

Not to mention all viewers of these blogs... what do u have against good grammar - just cause ur not capable of it doesn't mean u gotta dis it... or are you so jobless that you could do nothing else but go to this post, go there, read it, come back, and post a ONE LINE COMMENT??!!

well im not saying that you are jobless for figuring out something cool. but to log on and spend a couple hours on the net so that nobody will read it is jobless.
i mean, come on, accept it, some of us have REAL friends, and not just virtual ones on the internet.
and only the fact that you aveek used to be my real friend once gets me to log on here once a week to check what crap youre typing

and yes, im coming to bangalore on december 19th, and im there till Jan 8th. Hope to see you there. And i hope to see you apply to UWC so that you can come here and be my first year :)

hehe

but seriously i hope you are applying. i cant give you my essay because its at home, and all the technophobes at home cant send it to me by email. i apologise ;)

but if you make it to the interview, we get to assess your character for about 25% of the weightage (whether i swing it in your favour or against depends on the kind of treats i get when i come to bangalore ;) )
