Okay, my Rant: People who don't use any punctuation in their posts.



Recommended Posts

It doesn't have to be perfect punctuation, but when you use absolutely NO punctuation, your post does not make any sense at all!!!!!

Ugh I couldn't agree more. If I see what should be a paragraph, but it's typed as one huge sentence with no punctuation, I ignore it entirely. I don't have the time or patience to try to decipher that stuff.

I dont understand what you mean Whats wrong with not using punctuations again I mean it takes so much energy Dont you agree

ehehhehehe

...at least you threw in some capital letters, some don't even do that! ;)

then it looks like this and i have no clue where one thought starts and the next stop and sometimes it just makes no sense anyway because it's all random thoughts thrown together hey was that a squirrel that just ran by i really love squirrels but not as much as i love cats but sometimes my cat bites me bad kitty oh well maybe ill get a dog

I agree with you.

My pet peeve is all of the initials and abbreviations people use . . . I don't understand what most of them mean.

I am not a big user of "smart" phones and text messages. So, I am usually unsure what people are saying when they talk / post in code. Ha~ :)

OK, I've always had this one pet peeve. It's not loosing weight, it's losing weight. It's not loose weight, it's lose weight. Loose means something is not attached. OK, I'm done.

here's my pet peeve: "I need advise" hello, you need advice, sheesh. sorry had to chime in and I'm probably guilty of running one big sentence together as a paragraph but that is the way my brain works. sorry.

Remember these are computers and they do stop sometimes in the beginning, middle and end of a sentence or maybe someone just forgets it does happen, so maybe you can try to decipher what someone is trying to say , so just keep that in mind or maybe they don't spell it correctly , but hopefully most get the jest of what someone post or reply's .

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.
