And now, a snottily-posted message:

[loopychew]

This latest American English linguistic profile thing is fun, HOWEVER, it's got a teeny tiny little coding problem--an extra, unclosed <tr> tag--that maybe some people haven't noticed yet, because their style somehow manages to overlook it. However, I will demonstrate to you that no, all is not well over here in other people's journals!

I created a simulated set of breakdowns in my own personal journal which kinda shows what the hell happens every time you guys post one of those quizzes without an LJ-Cut and screencapped them. Please, PLEASE keep this graphic imagery from that link in mind next time you do a meme, and if you don't care to or can't double-check the HTML on your own end (perfectly understandable, especially since the CODERS are the ones who should be doing that), please at least LJ-Cut it?

EDITED: I've removed the sample breakdown entries in favor of screencaps. Check'em out in the links above.

...gee, bit of piss in your Post Toasties this morning, Chu? ¬_¬#

Could've explained that without the gallon of snot, quite...

[loopychew.livejournal.com]

Considering how broken my friends page is at this very minute and the frequency at which these things are being posted, I can't be bothered to make the same comment in everyone's journal.

So yeah, I'm feeling a bit snotty. >_>

Also, that picture was posted in the a Metaquotes entry, and I thought it was too good not to use.

Maybe it's just me...

But the only thing that looks broken to me is that your page gets way too dark for me to read.

For example, the Before and After "examples" are totally blank. Nothing there... no image, nada. So I can't see what you're trying to show me.

I guess that's because I only use the old, boring, standard LJ style. I'm not into tweaking my page into a personal expression of creativity. So I usually have very few problems with stuff people post.

I will try to remember to put quizzly results behind cuts, however...

Try scrolling down.

I did, Chu. It doesn't show for me.

Hm. Here's how it looks for me:

Compare that to, say, http://www.livejournal.com/users/loopychew/?skip=10 and you'll see what I'm referring to...

Ok, now I get it. I thought all that darkness was you, being artistic...

Re: Maybe it's just me...

[loopychew.livejournal.com]

You'll know when the darkness is me being artistic when Linkin Park enters my "current music" selection.

Don't worry, I'll correct the code in mine before posting it. ^_^;

[chiieddy.livejournal.com]

I'd fix the code, but the darn thing probably wouldn't be picked up again by the LJ RSS feed anyhow at this point. It's easy for me to forget to LJ cut because I don't post via LJ.

[abno.livejournal.com]

You know, I never seem to have a problem with it...

I dunno..

[loopychew.livejournal.com]

Some styles have this problem, others don't. I'm not exactly sure why.

[baagaa.livejournal.com]

Sorry about that. I think I've fixed it, but regardless, I've put it into an lj-cut to avoid any issues.
