Joy said, “We don’t have Dunkin Donuts out here so I haven’t seen their ad. I’m guessin it’s cause of the word DunKIN and they are continuin with the misspellin theme. Who knows.”

You’ve explained the mystery! The “kin’ ” is short for “Dunkin’.” Of course, that means that it should be ” ‘kin’. ” Either way. ANNOYING.

Lynda commented on my story, Isantim:

“I love this – thank you!”

Aww, thank YOU.

“Heh, I do the same thing all the time.

“See? Just did it again – took your post and commented ALL ABOUT ME.

“I agree with Jennifer above though, that agreeing with people and identifying with what they have posted is a way of positive commenting. Totally. Heck, they’re teaching Kiddo how to do that in kindergarten right now: they read a story, then do a “connection to text” where they write something about either a connection between the text and themselves, the text and another text, or the text and the world. Most kids pick text-themselves. Totally legit.

Hmmm, I’m not sure this is a long enough comment to be from me, but you’re busy so I’ll stop rambling on now!”
