Good morning, comrades, and happy Monday¡
Start your week with a taste of punctuational freedom by catching up on our progress since the momentous First Thursday of the Revolution.
I. Progress in the Twitter Theater
Highlights from the battles fought by the Sarcasm Liberation Army on the front lines of Twitter:
- Comrade @PaladinPhila quoted from the manifesto.
- Comrades @Msardina and @KyleHase spread the words of our leadership to their followers.
- Comrade @gilfer promised us a gold medal in sarcasm.
- Comrade @naseeral—one of the longest-standing members of the Salvation Liberation Army—shared the sweet euphoria of punctuational freedom: I have started using #opensarcasm in my sarcastic little notes. The feeling is invigorating.
- Comrade @pidster provided instructions on punctuating sarcasm to his friend @whittlechris.
- Comrade @grimmlock tweeted: Open Sarcasm Manifesto¡ http://ow.ly/195VF I’ll be damned, I did not know this existed. I just saved 2 bucks¡
- Comrade @jpmarcotte showed true revolutionary spirit, writing: “Bah, nobody would want to use something that’s already free and almost universally usable¡”
- Our newest recruit to the Sarcasm Liberation Army, Comrade @lowrobb shared a link to coverage of our movement and later recomended that his Twitter followers follow @OpenSarcasm for information on achieving punctuational freedom and shared some of our words with them. Thank you, comrade, for your heartfelt enthusiasm and support!
- And Comrade @tonygil tweeted his support after we told him of the alternative to SarcMark®.
II. Coverage from Mighty Red Pen
The self-described “grammar goddess” who pens the blog Mighty Red Pen covered our epic struggle against the chains of punctuational capitalism, saying:
The folks at Open Sarcasm, on the other hand, have a real problem with the SarcMark®. They have a whole website, with a manifesto and so on, decrying the concept of a licensed punctuation mark for identifying sarcasm.
III. Progress in the Turkish Theater
Finally, the revolution made considerable progress in the Turkish Theater with a supportive article from the well-respected Turkish Journal.
