How to reply to blog entries

I guess DCP did not like my stating the obvious.

Now you can say "I've been highly acknowledged by DCP".

I could .. But I don't think I will.

I don't understand the joke. A little help, please?

Tak said something that Dr. Peterson didn't like in another thread and now he's trying to derail everything with this "acknowledge TAK" thing. It's really funny.

That's correct. On a thread that was largely about me, TAK declared that I like things to be about me. So, in order to make sure that it was about me, I decided to deflect attention to TAK because, by derailing a thread that's largely about me to an acknowledgment of TAK, I divert the thread that's largely about me to being principally about me. Fortunately, The Dude came on to another thread that was explicitly about me in order to point out that he avoids and ignores threads about me. So, now that I've diverted the thread that was largely about me to being mostly about me by cleverly acknowledging TAK, The Dude may continue to avoid and ignore it by posting on it. Or not.

It's all so very confusing.

And, of course, deeply troubling.

I am honored to be acknowleged by the great and powerful DCP...

So how many classes are you teaching this fall?

Two.

How many are you teaching?

Dr. Peterson, by telling us to acknowledge TAK, has deviously turned this thread into a thread about himself. Oh, he's good.

[_Daniel Peterson]

Mwahahahaha.
