How do you get direct links to individual blog posts?

u click the blog post and you get to a new fucking page. completely different.

Completely different.

*sigh* you younguns with ur squiggly hieroglyphic interwebz thingies.

it is completely different because at the blog you get a whole new fucking page. here you pop down or whatever (yes, new link and all that at the top) but since you just pop down I DIDN'T KNOW! COMPLETELY DIFFERENT!

So the only real difference is that you didn't know about one of them?  

Is it just me or do Twixs sometimes taste dramatically better than other times? Like a completely different taste.

You mean like that left twix/right twix commercial?

spoiler: i don't eat twix

 oh fuck you, the difference is that one of them opens a completely new page which makes it really obvious and simple.

I'm gonna go ahead and replace my original snarky response and simply lament the fact that the bulk of a generation today is growing up with an overly sanitized Internet where they only need to learn the extremely basic layouts of maybe half a dozen websites that they rarely ever stray from.  As annoying as Facebook's change-for-the-sake-of-change approach to design is, I have a feeling it would get a lot less complaints if the majority of Facebook users had ever been forced to learn how to think logically about the web and how to use it.

Then again, you see the same thing with older people who don't know how to find something on Google (one of the most powerful informational tools ever created) if it doesn't show up on the first page of results on their very first search, so maybe this is less a generational thing and more just an issue of people with no interest in how technology works going online anyway.

Get off my goddamn lawn.

oh kay calm yer tits, man. how do u know i don't want to actually figure stuff out? jeez... just because i don't know how to link to a post.. man... i do know how shit works.

yeah Eldo.  calm those tits right down.  

*ishetalkingaboutmeolderpersonwhocantgooglesearch?*

don't worry. i gave him a scolding on facebook for saying that. he's sorry  (joking)

I'm pretty sure I was the one who messaged you on FB in the first place.

In any event, I've found things run smoother here when everyone remembers Forumshire Rule #4.

Life imitating art!   (talking of which you read the latest part Norc before I go putting up the next bit?)

I just cancelled by fb account.

Twix do taste dramatically different from day to day, sometimes from minute to minute. Some times they are delicious caramelly things and sometimes they are sickly scratchy horrors that make you thirsty. But only English Twix, Scottish Twix are Always perfect.
