I know passive sentences are bad, but I still think my original sentence is better than Word's suggestion:

Original: This sentence is in the form of a compound sentence, containing two main clauses, separated by commas.

Word: Commas in the form of a compound sentence, containing two main clauses, separate this sentence

In honor of America's 231^st anniversary, I am posting a bunch of videos of people playing with fireworks. Enjoy!

So I was browsing looking in my little Dashboard Dictionary widget to see if they had an entry on "do-rag," to check the spelling. The definitions are provided by the New Oxford American Dictionary, so I was a little surprised that they had an entry for do-rag. I was even more amused by the sample sentence: "13-year-old kids in big pants, 'wife beater' T-shirts, and do-rags dancing to the sound of 50 Cent and calling each other 'G.'"

I am mainly surprised that the OAD editors know who 50 Cent is. He didn't become popular until 2003-ish, and OAD people don't strike me as hip to hip-hop. Also, can someone explain to me the significance of "G."?

Flushing. It requires one single friggin' press of the button. And yet, it would seem this simple step is rather difficult for many men. Anyway, I entered the men's room at the Memorial Coliseum during the second day of the Portland Robotics Regional, and to my general disgust every single one of the 12 or so urinals was unflushed.

Perhaps one man had forgotten and others had to out-slob him. Perhaps men are all just slobs. Whatever the cause, I have no interest in staring at everyone else's piss, and I went down the line, flushing every single one. Which probably didn't last for very long, because doubtless they'd get yellow soon after. Oh well.

I know humor is subjective. That's life. But usually, my friends and I find the same things funny. That's why we're friends, afterall. But one thing seems to separate me from it seems everyone else on the planet: Charlie the Unicorn.

Everyone I know finds this video hilarious. Even Matt Dinniman, whose sense of humor I generally enjoy posted a link to it on his blog. I alone seem to think it stupid. I watch the video and think, "how the hell is this funny? Cute maybe, but hilarious? Surely you jest."

I'm not humorless, a lot of the videos I find on the web are hilarious, but this one? I'll be glad when people stop quoting it.
