and lo, the oxford english dictionary didst consume so much crack that e.b. white's elements of style did eschew it, and the child that wast conceived upon it did grow within the shadow of its shame as in the shadow of a mighty Tree of Shamefulness. so that when it was time for her to go forth the OED didst say unto her 'lo, childe, go forth and utilize, pretentiously, nigh unto hordes of pretentious words,' and go forth she didst, never knowing that such a thing as Style might exist, and she didst compose many long-winded essays for the [livejournal.com profile] johnny_depp_fans, and even unto the community [livejournal.com profile] depp_daily did she send them. and her words were many, but no less numerous were her errors of grammar, for she knew not of Style. and the elements of style did turn its back, and weep, for a crack-child of the OED is a terrible thing to behold.
