late to the party but it is the a.m. now and am partially hungover and pissy about how slow commenting has been (for me) this yuletide so FUCK IT BE THE CHANGE YOU WANT TO SEE IN THE WORLD &C. - gonna try to post 10 comments before I stumble into the shower; 2 down so far...

From your &C. I assume you're a Hamilton nonnie, and wish you best of luck! I should do the same ...

AYRT

nope, actually! I've been using &c. since, god, I don't even know when, but 'm not in Hamilton at all. I always thought it was a dead giveaway - strange to think it is, except for maybe someone else!

Huh, wow, I've never seen it outside the various 18th century letters, so ... I guess you learning something new every day. Well, god-speed, regardless.

Pride and Prejudice is probably where I cribbed it from, and then I did read an awful lots of letters/memoirs... &c...

That's where *I* got it from. High five, anon! I use &c a ton in my own journals and to-do lists, and have done for years.

I've used &c. for ages too and I am also not into Hamilton at all and have not listened to any of it. But now I'm curious why it'd be associated with Hamilton fandom. (Or maybe this person just associates it with a specific person who is in Hamilton fandom?)

My curiosity is satisfied, 18th century letters, huh... I don't really recall where I first picked it up from.

Coalie who associated it with Hamilton - This is definite sample bias at work, since I haven't read a huge amount of writing from the 18th or 19th century (beyond a few novels and other text that's been smoothed out in terms of spelling, capitalization, and italics habits), so only have seen it in various letters.
