Pet peeve of the day: referring to posts or entries as "blogs" or "diaries" instead of "blog entries" or "diary posts," e.g. "I like that blog you posted today."

It seems this is becoming the standard usage so i'll probably have to get over myself, but in the meantime, i'll grumble in a curmudgeonly manner.

Awww, shucks. Yeah, i know, i am not enough of a misanthrope to qualify as a real curmudgeon. I'm too young for that honor anyway; i'm probably too young to be even a "crank." "Cynic," i guess.
