I installed yer Pirate translator on me blog back in March fer an wickedly funny April Fool’s Day Prank. Imagine me surprise when I found that it hijacked me blog today, and turned everythin' into Pirate talk. How awesome!
ARRRRRRRR Ma’tie!
Don’t ye know that Talk Like A Pirate Day is part o' “avast” conspiracy?
Yaaarrrrr…, and dinna spare the whip! tis’ wasteful that me be a day late… arrrrrr….
Yaaaa~~~
it’great~~`
I wore a pirate hat t' work, nobody got it.
Arrgh me hearty. Let there be a pleasant day fer all ye fine gents and ladies. Awesome wordpress plugin, thanks Dougal.
Hi,
Not sure if this is related t' th' plugin or what, but this post (and only this post) gets updated in me rss reader at least once a day, and it’s startin' t' get *slightly* annoyin'! Any notion why this might be?
Matt
You have managed t' take one post, fer a trivial subject that only a niche group o' scallywags might even remotely care about, and turned it into proof beyond a reasonable doubt that ye are one o' th' most obnoxious scallywags on th' planet, and guaranteed that anythin' ye e'er write in th' future should be ignored as th' words o' a lunatic.
Why not grow up and stop pesterin' scallywags with this drivel by makin' a final update t' this post apologizin' t' everyone forced t' read it several times a day via th' planet.wordpress feed?
Actually, that’s a symptom o' a feed reader that doesn’t implement th' standards correctly. If yer reader keeps showin' ye th' item o'er and o'er, it’s because it’s ignorin' both th' GUID and “last updated” timestamp, which should be how a reader determines if an item has been updated, with a chest full of booty.
In any case, I had already started workin' on reworkin' th' code t' not filter feeds. But I were already workin' on it because o' th' previous commenter who asked much more politely (thank ye, Matt). I missed a case in me first pass, but I just now got that covered, so RSS readers should all see th' plain text version o' th' post and comments from now on.
You’re welcome anyways.
It hasn’t updated th' post today, so hopefully it’s sorted! Shiver me timbers! Thanks fer lookin' at that!
Yaaarrrrr!
I’m usin' Netnewswire as me reader incidentally if that tells ye anythin' good or bad about it!
I too not got clear notion about this, but got very much interested t' install this in me blog. Thanks fer this wonderful post.
