That Is What We Like To Call A Fruedian Slip

[redbrunja]

So, during my writer's group, since April is national poetry month, we were tasked to write a poem.

I write down 5 7 5 on different lines of my page, thinking I'm going to write a haiku before realizing that no, the words I want to write are too long, forget that syllable restriction poetry thing. However, the mediator of our group glances over, sees what I'm doing, and goes, "I want to mention that you can do a haiku, like redbrunja."

Now, I mean to say, "I'm not doing a haiku."

What I actually say is: "I'm not doing Hakkai."

I laugh hysterically, try to repeat myself correctly, and end up making the exact same slip of the tongue.

In other news, did livejournal recently give use more entries per tag? Because I could have sworn that it was limited to a hundred posts, but now it's looking like it's limited to 1,000.

(Also, I'm going to be spamming your flists. I hope no one gets too annoyed.)

Yeah, they changed the tagging systems a few months back. You can have 1000 entries per tag(but anything that was over 100 entries before the new system still won't show the oldest entries) but only 1000 tags. It causes woe to us who obsessively tag.

I don't obessively tag, but it makes no freaking sense to me that if you're over a hundred you can't change the tag name and get back to 1,000. (And that probably makes zero sense outside my head.)
