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 .

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
