a shift in thinking
OK. A pet peeve of mine. Omitting capitalization when called for, say at the beginning of a sentence, or the first letter of someone's name, or the pronoun "I" doesn't make you cool in my book. It just makes you lazy. So stop it. Is what you're saying really that important that you don't have the time to hit that "shift" key with your little pinky finger? No...I didn't think so.
I partially blame the software companies and their "auto correct" functionality. Thanks for allowing us to be sloppy! But that's only a small piece of it. You have to accept the bulk of the blame yourself.
Now why am I seeing commercial products that are doing that crap on their labels? WTF?!? What slacker crowd are you trying to appeal to?!?
You know, another thing I never really cared for is the whole "Word. Word. Word." trend I was seeing in advertisement, etc. It's what motivated me to title my blog that way. I think I see another statement coming. Yeah, definitely gotta do it...
thanks. for. listening.
