Contrafibularities

My incremental post-industrial decontextualized multiparadigmed pedagogical exercise in post-textual neo-semioticist non-narrative discourse has encountered   contumelious reprobation from  a pseudo-objectivist  deconstruction.
That is, my blog is crap. According to this, it's got a Gunning-Fog index of just 10.25. That makes it more readable than the Wall Street Journal or the Guardian.
This is a failure. It's meant to be more inteligent than those - but not more accessible. I don't want to be read by just anyone, you know. This isn't for the riff-raff.
Worse still, I use only 1.56 syllables per word. Surely a record low for an economist, albeit one who hasn't yet blogged on generalized autoregessive conditional heteroscedasticity. I'm anaspeptic, frasmotic, even compunctuous to have been caused such pericumbobulation.

You can create pseudo-intelligence by using justified text rather than left-aligned. I just discovered this when playing around on my site.
Anyway you are confusing two scores... one was the complexity of the content, long words with many syllables; the other was readability (Flesch Reading Ease)

Also, it is quite possible your long blogroll upsets the weighting, as who knows how these tools work.

You should worry - my Gunning-Fog is 9.76, ave syl 1.51. I'm even below Newsweek. Must be all the cursing I've been doing lately.

And I'm sure I speak for all S&M readers when I say: that's quite enough about heteroscedasticity.

At least they didn't call him Balding Rick.

Wow. "Contrafibularities" is a real word and people have used it in a 21st context.
