The Labable Lab Cats

THE LAB CATS

1) will be composed of cute and cuddly, but smart and witty mods and members

2) will lick the wounds of the grammatically-challenged

3) will use upper and lower cases in sentence construction

4) will eliminate comma splices, run-on sentences, misplaced and dangling modifiers in our works

5) will proofread and edit our works at least three times before posting anything ... to avoid cyber humiliation and future flames from grammar freaks (

6) will be prepared to scratch the backs of those who scratch ours

7) will show claws only when attacked so that we can defend ourselves and the entire "kittendom"

8) will lead word game threads as mental exercise (ex: alliteration, ABC stories, nickronyms, etc.)

9) will aim to write essays that will make the readers go, "meow," este, "aaaw"

10) will promote class and not crass in The Lab (This means we refuse to post anything using expletives -- tangna, fuck you, etc. -- unless they are part of a dialogue or quote in a short story or essay.)

11) will remain cool and polite in our interaction with Labbers and Labsters in spite of the continued riling from attention-hungry members

12) will always thank members who post comments (may they be positive or negative) in our threads in the CSA Essay Lab

*arnivorous alliterates, changes into her catty cheerleader costume, claps and cheers*

Lab Cats can rule
They can all drool
Some think we're "prudes"
They're just rude dudes!

Meowr!
