I got a great idea.. how about correcting the spelling of "Villanelle" in the poem type box?. You had me convinced that its spelled vilanelle, and now I blame you for mis-spelling it five times in my latest vill.. (my royal ranker right to be an irritating jack ass, despite the fact that I should have checked it myself.. its still your fault.)
