Thank you. I liked that a lot. Very informative and I will henceforth correct my langauge use.
No. I merely reinforced it in my own way and refuted your "complete idiot" statement.
oh, yes, i can assure you, i write very well, indeed.
but i am also one with far ranging interests, too, and so, unlike many in recent generations, i have read books by authors less popular than they once were; inter alios e e cummings, and, iconoclast that he was, nevertheless, he made some good points; alas, however, ones that could not be put into practice by those who wished to be thought literate, until the internet appeared, whereupon i decided to seize the day.
Attorneys are among the worst writers on the planet. Need proof? Just read any bill or law, state or federal. Granted, you didn't claim to be an attorney, but a writer for attorneys. I can just imagine how scintillating books for attorneys must be to read. (No, I can't make the same claim. I'm not a writer for attorneys. Thank goodness.)
So I'll repeat. Anyone who:
--> Starts a message with "wft?!?",
-->Doesn't bother to initial cap the first letter of the first word in each sentence, and
-->Repeats the grammatical gibberish of "?!?" at the end of his second sentence...
...hardly has room to call anyone else an idiot.
oh, bon mot.
