> Honestly, as I typed this, I had to go back to the thread and be sure it wasn’t the Babylon Bee.

I was praying it was the Bee.

Alas, no...

'If you send a text message without a full stop, it's already obvious that you've concluded the message.

So isn't that "triggering" too?

“’Just asked 16-year-old son – apparently this is true.”

Of course we should follow the lead of 16-year-olds.

Too few periods, too few commas, no capital letter _I_s, using _different than_ instead of _different from_, applying _that_ instead of _who_ to people,...

They’re drugged stupid, and they’re offended by educated people. I you argue with a drugged-up lefty who uses such mangled English, that’s the truth that will eventually come out of the their barrage of lies, projections, false accusations and insults.

>>Are you serious? Some people are being offended by...a PERIOD?????

*facepalm* You gotta be kidding me.<<

Everything old is new again. The current generation is a bunch of freaking COBOL compilers!

[familyop]

If you argue, even. Lost a letter there.

[bwest]

A semicolon must trigger heart attacks.

OMG — an ellipse!!! RUN FOR YOUR LIVES...

[Larry Lucido]

We have at least one blogger on FR who never finishes a sentence. Always half sentences that trail off with ......

Not even a clean three dot elipse...

Just off into the ether with a series of random dots.

Now I understand. I think ...

Snowflakes suffer on their periods?

Thank goodness I didn’t have my mouth full of Pepsi when I read your post!!!!!!

[familyop]

Have you noticed how academic lefties answer when asked questions during interviews? They begin their answers with _so_, _right_ or _sure_. They’re annoying.

[Lurkina.n.Learnin]

Some can be quite offensive during their period. 😁

[Bratch]

[bagster]

Not exactly the same topic, but — anyway — I’ve noticed that people can’t focus or conclude any thoughts on — whatever

Sounds like Biden-speak.

That old codger don't end his sentences either, these days.

[Flick Lives]

Rhiannon Cosslett tweeted: ‘Older people – do you realise that ending a sentence with a full stop comes across as sort of abrupt and unfriendly to younger people in an email/chat? Genuinely curious.’

Our FRiend has the record for exclamation point usage, but she’s not triggered by proper punctuation. Indeed, my guess is she’d punch out anyone whining about being so “triggered.”

[bagster]

Offended by a period? This has to be a joke.

I used to have a girlfriend whose periods sometimes offended me.

[rlmorel]

Hahahaha...must be like "South Park: The Brown Noise"
