So I came across one of those text analyzing thingees, and subjected this blog to it. The site predicted that this blog is "written by a male somewhere between 36-50 years old." OK. So far, so good.
Then the writing style was described as "academic." I suppose that's right, but not too many academic papers use the word fuck too often. And then things went off the rails, as my writing style was described as...
....happy?!?
I work very, very hard to be cranky and curmudgeonly. And that stupid fucking computer calls me happy? I have a reputation to uphold.
Anyway, here's what it spat out about this blog:

Dude ... your male/female thingy is like a little on the iffy side. I recommend you mention monster trucks more often, include some fart joke, and talk more about how your going to 'sooo totally nail that broad with the huge rack'. Like ... even if your not.
This will also help with the personal/academic thing.
