As an example of the new pricing plan, suppose you posted an entry to your blog reading, ?I had a cheese sandwich for lunch today. Then, I got behind the slowest woman in the grocery-store line! Grrrr!? By my count (TypeKey will handle the sentence diagramming automatically in MT3.0014d), this entry contains 6 adjectives/adverbs, 4 nouns, 3 articles, 2 passive verbs, 2 pronouns, 2 prepositions, and 1 interjection. Therefore, under the new license, your entry would cost a grand total of 84¢ — no matter how many blogs or authors you have! Now, that‘snot so bad, is it? —Six Apart announces more changes to Movable Type license (Apropos of Something)
Don’t worry, it’s just a joke.

I should also note that software that can flawlessly diagram sentences is hard to come by, so that was an early tip off!
Sorry, Dr. B.... in the context where I first found it, there was no hint that it was a joke at al1!
You do have to take some of us a little slower than others. I read this and shouted "Huh!!" outloud, until I read the part about it being a joke. Stranger things have happened, so new pricing plans are not outside of the realm of possibility for me.
