Tonight on my post-ACES panel walk with my husband, I mentioned how that whenever you see a presenter's dog or cat, you must type into the chat: cat! (or dog, etc.)

Me: That's become the etiquette.

Him: Don't you mean the "ed"-iquette?

OMG, I won the #ACESVCON26 Pun Slam! The topic was colors, and I had to try really hard not to violet the rules. Sadly, I never unleashed my favorite/worst pun:
One of my daughter’s favorite books is Harold and the Purple Crayon. As an editor, I want to shorten the title though, to Harold and Mauve.
