I protest ALAS NO MORE Z'S and IM A DOT IN PLACE. The problem is easily fixed by shifting the apostrophe doing plural duty in the first to possessive duty in the second. (The issue of whether apostrophes are allowed in anagrams can be addressed another day.)
The person who has way too much time is the person who responds to an article they clearly have no interest in.
If Ken posts an article that you don't think looks interesting - close his website, use that time for something that does appeal to you, and return again the next day for something that hopefully will be of more interest.
I'm sure Ken won't burst into tears if you give him a pass occasionally.
Like Ken, I found this story intriguing, and amazed with some of the parallel results they found.
To me, someone who "has way too much time" as Joe puts it, is someone who responds to a story they clearly have no interest (which is what Joe did).
To illustrate, I have no interest in baseball. If I read the first few sentences of Ken's daily entry and it's clearly all about baseball, I immediately stop reading and close the blog.
I do not immediately go on to comments and criticise baseball.
When I have free time, I sometimes play at Internet Anagram Server (https://wordsmith.org/anagram/index.html). There is a feature that animates the letters rearranging into the new words. Fun for the whole family.

Somebody has way too much free time.
ReplyDeleteI am reminded of Dick Cavett, who has the ability to make an anagram on command, and for Spiro Agnew came up with, "Grow a penis."

I took Joe to mean that the person who created those anagrams had too much time on their hands, not Ken.

Who even said I wasn't interested in the post, or didn't even like it?
ReplyDeleteI keep forgetting, this is the internet: sarcasm and facetious remarks don't emote well through text.
