| Post subject: | The Self-Referential Sentences Game! |
This sentence appears both as the first sentence and the last sentence in the first post of a Forum Games topic about self-referential sentences. In this game, every sentence must refer to itself (like this one does in a parenthetical clause at the end of it). This sentence has two mispelled wurds. This sorntence sornds like Corch Z's speech. THiS SENTENCE iS iN ALL CAPiTAL LETTERS, EXCEPT FOR ALL THE i'S, WHiCH ARE LOWERCASE. This sentence tells all potential readers to have fun and post their own self-referential sentences. This sentence appears both as the first sentence and the last sentence in the first post of a Forum Games topic about self-referential sentences. |

This sentence is the only one in its post, like the previous sentence, but is written forwards, unlike the previous sentence. |

For some strange reason, even though I only looked in this thread once, I had a dream about this game last night, which I now inform you of using words in a sentence, which is this one. In this sentence, I will make the prediction that this thread will contain much more use of the semicolon and other less-used clause-connecting punctuation than is common in other situations. |

This sentence is not a paragraph, nor is it paraffin. This sentence has seven instances of the letter S. |

This sentence is false. This sentence is telling you to chew on that one and see if you don't go insane. |

This sentence references the classic rock hit, "Smoke on the Water," and dies with an awful sound. |

This is a rather long sentence, so long, in fact, that it may annoy you to read this sentence, which, as stated before, is long enough to do just that, annoy you, because of the length of this long sentence which by the time you get to the end may annoy and/or confuse you enough that you will wish to kill me or do other not nice things to me to get revenge for making you read this long, confusing, annoying, repetitive, redundant, and of course self-referential sentence, which talks about itself, that of course being the meaning of self-referential, and the overall point of the game that is the thread that contains the post containing this sentence, which as previously stated, is both annoying, long, confusing, repetitive, redundant, and for the most part grammatically correct, except for that last part of it, because I said that the sentence is "both" six things, which of course is wrong because "both" refers to two things, not one, not three, not four, not five, and, most importantly to the matter at hand, not six, this being most important because, as I said, I mentioned six things while using "both", which is incorrect, and really quite a silly thing to do in this sentence, because up until that point, I'm pretty sure it was grammatically correct, although I wonder about the grammatical correctness of having a sentence this long, not because I think there is a rule about sentence length, just because I doubt it would be possible for me to write a sentence this long and remaining completely grammatically correct, although I'm sure some could, such as William Faulkner, James Joyce, and Jonathan Coe, who's names I got from Wikipedia's article on "Longest English Sentence", and who have all written sentences in excess of one thousand words, which is doubtless longer than this sentence, which as I said, is probably grammatically incorrect anyway, even though you may question what exactly grammatically correct is in this day and age, as many are of the opinion that language and grammar change over time as people speak and write differently, which may be a moot point anyway because that idea would not really apply to this sentence, as this is obviously no the way the English language is used in our time, nor is it likely to be used this way in the near future, as it is tiring both to write and read a sentence as long as this one, which, as I have stated several times, is quite long, annoying, confusing, repetitive, redundant, of questionable grammatical correctness, certainly not the way most people, or I should say English-speakers, write or speak, and tiring, which I can attest to and I'm sure you can as well, if you have in fact read this entire sentence. |

This sentence has the word "This" in it thrice times. |

This sentence is pointing out that "thrice times" is wrong, just like "twice times" is wrong. |
|
| Author: | The Snork [ Sun Nov 12, 2006 1:14 am ] |
| Post subject: | |
This sentence is pointing out that "thrice" doesn't apply anyway, because there are only two instances of the word "this" in that sentence. |

This is missing a common thing. |

This sentence is an inquiry upon what the previous sentence was missing, even though it does not end with a question mark. |

This sentance is answering the previous post, the last post that I made was missing a common letter, that letter is in this sentace 14 times. |

This sentence expresses the author's sentiment that the missing thing was "E", although a larger sentence would probably be better to illustrate that. Also, this subsequent sentence, the second one in this post, lets the_chekt know that he spelled "sentence" wrong. This third and final sentence reminds the_chekt not to get too worked up, because it's just a tiny spelling error. |

This sentence is agreeing with The Snork's first sentence but says that it was hard enough to come up with that one, it also thanks The Snork for telling him of his spelling errors but is also telling him to STFU!

This sentence lets Ian know that it isn't. This sentence uses the clichéd phrase, O SNAP! |

This sentence is stupid. |

This sentence expresses the author's dissent about the fact that there is no proof that that sentence is stupid. This sentence, however, is, because it says that Donald Rumsfeld should return to being Secretary of Defense. |
