    How in the fuck do you read this in order?

    This is like the worst mixture of top- and bottom-posting I’ve ever seen.

    Because it messes up the order in which people normally read text.

    >> Top-posting.

    >>> What is the most annoying thing in e-mail?

    Glad to help!

    I found it useful as a little kind of mnemonic to call out the distinctive features of each language.

    The one major thing it misses is that Japanese uses some of the Chinese characters, so you have to check for the “stabby/loopy” characters mixed in to tell; and sometimes there aren’t any if the text is short.
