One of those “no reason, I just liked it” posts.

I don't follow anyone on Twitter, period (semicolon?) but I'm tempted to after discovering, via a link from Neal at Literal-Minded, @FakeAPStylebook.  A selection:

. Do not confuse "lyme disease" with "lime disease," an affliction caused by over-consumption of mojitos. 


. It is not necessary to refer to the Mountain Time Zone. There will never be a story from there.

. Metaphors may not be used by Journalists unless they are at least Level 5 and have taken the "Imagery" skill. 

. The plural of apostrophe is "apostrophe's." 

. Only use the word "proactive" if it will dynamically impact your synergistic throughput paradigm. 

. All composition titles are to be denoted with quotation marks instead of italics because this is still 1955, apparently. 

. The British spelling of "color" is "Blimey, color, I say! What ho!" 

. @Athenrein: Yes, but for simplicity's sake, you may shorten "Unemployed-American" to "American." . In high school sports stories, do your best to play up star players' big-league chances so their failures are more tragic.

. If an editor draws a little dick on your manuscript, it's probably not a correction. It's more likely he just likes drawing little dicks. 

 That last one brings back memories.  Not that anyone ever actually drew a penis on anything I wrote.  At least not that I noticed.
