Stupid Blogger Blog Editor

First real post comes courtesy of Blogger.com who hosts this site. I tried to edit the description to add some funny ironic code to really drive home the point of this site and got this error:

What the hell Blogger? Why would I expect that field was meant to hold HTML? It doesn't say anything about HTML. How about giving me a way to accept that description as static text, no, that would be too freaking hard for your developers.
