How come you put a period between site and ever? Were this proper, you should have nothing there, or maybe a comma to denote a breath. Ever hardly constitutes a sentence all its own.

Short answer: This ain't proper.

Long answer: To signify the magnitude of the site's supposed impact on future viewers. Stemming from a slang term begun by The Simpsons's Comic Book Guy, referring to things as "Worst. [Noun/Adjective]. Ever." Uttering that phrase in a staccato fashion led to humorus situations in addition to magnifying the Comic Book Guy's exasperation with said object. Then, as time would have it, using this statement as a way to express one's personal feelings on the internet became popular. Internet users used it to express such thoughts as "Worst. Idea. Ever." (Aside: Ever is comically misspelled to "evar" on occasion, again to maginfy the humor or severity of the statement).

I just go to Borders and wait for them to have collections I don't already own on sale for $4.50. Right now, I think I"m 3 books short of a complete collection.

The complete set towers over my petty soft bound C&H books. They shiver in its presence and scream for mercy.

 

[markholladay]

I have all the Calvin and Hobbes books, but in the old soft bound ones. Oh how I miss Calvin and Hobbes.

 

[jshendel]

Yeah, I miss it too. Good stuff
