Actually, #2 could apply to the stats because they are gathered from a number of things that change on a daily basis depending on who posts and when.

So, yay for nonsensical big words actually making situational sense!

True, but that would only make sense if we averaged 400 posts a day next month and 150 posts a day in October.

Then they'd make no sense.

Or the board's just one big illusion.

I'm sure there are and I assure you I had no touhou in mind when I chose the word.

It doesn't help that the PC98 games were practically centered around dreams.

Thanks, now I have to listen to Phantasmagoria Mystical Expectation again.

Also: I like long words.

Vituperative.

Why use a big word when a diminutive one will suffice?

It is hard to use only wee words.

Communication involving exclusively tremendous vocabulary requires analogous proficiency.

Ow. My head.

Words consisting of 15 or more letters confuse me. Mainly because most people don't use them normally.

(Changed my minipic. Looks a little better.)

I do on occasion. If the mood calls for it.
Then again. Out of the two people I'd actually use them around, one's not here.

Last time I checked, these stats were not "phantasmagorical". If you're going to throw big words around, at least know what they mean.
