You know what I've always found to be "annoying?" People that "use" quotation marks for emphasis. It always makes me think the word(s) in quotes are supposed to be sarcastic, or have a double entendre.
Well, apparently I'm not "alone."

I can relate to that...
ReplyDeleteBut..., you might need to ask yourself:
Why am I so annoyed by the improper use of what is so-called "proper grammar?" Why does it even matter? Do I find this same problem, when talking to people...or is it merely an analytical response to visible text?
It is a damn shame, that many of the humanoids during this particular time Era, can't even communicate with each other electronically or by any other visible means...without miscommunication! This (obviously) seems to be sooooo inefficient! No wonder telepathy is bliss...and verbal communication is next in line, hand signals & body motion at a distant 3rd...while these electronic signals that bother you are more primitive than you'll ever imagine.......so really, why even waste the time with over-analyzing the core of shear 'Neolithic Incompetence'......
