Now I get to make fun of some people

So, on this list I'm on, which is maybe related to writing, maybe not, I see this sentence leap out at me: "The database is currently 28 pages long!" Let me put this in a header so that it really leaps out:

The database is currently 28 pages long!

No, the database is not currently any pages long. Don't make me talk about extents and pages and leaves. Just don't. It's cruel. I believe what they mean, maybe, is that the database generates a report that is 28 pages long. But since this is in the context of the web, talking about pages doesn't make sense. 28 rows is no big whoopdedoodle but what could 28 web pages mean? Now my brain hurts. They mean well. I suppose I should go look at what they've done. They mean well, but they're completely clueless and obviously no one in charge knows WTF they're doing or they wouldn't have let such a stupid, idiot clueless statement go out to thouands of writers, I mean maybe writers. Maybe something else.
