I love how everyone has focused on the least important of my 3 vents

Thank you for posting this. I've seen a couple of really interesting threads go down in flames due to back and forth nonsense that escalated to an unreasonable level. People please...walk away from it, don't fan the flames.

I care a great deal about this site as it saved me from all the worry and fear I had pre surgery. I want to be positive and not critical and have seen others write constructive criticism when I've wanted to yell at stupid people. But I walk away and usually someone else provides the needed support even if it's of a critical nature without...let me repeat...without being bullying, or nasty, or snarky.

I'd like to see that regularly and am hoping Alex is paying attention so this forum doesn't get hijacked. We've lost way too many good and sensible veterans and I don't want to lose any more.

Thanks for letting me vent.

It's nauseated. Not nauseous.

I myself do not mind reading crazy grammar, it's like a challenge of the mind! Maybe it's because of all the time I've spend trying to read DR's orders? In my life reading a DR's order wrong could potentially harm/kill a patient. Reading a thread with difficulty won't. I pick my aggravation accordingly. Life is sort. I would rather decipher between sentences than that dang tiny purple writing some have. I bypass

Oh, I disagree. Some people are definitely nauseous.

@@wannaBthinsoon If you change your writing to that cursive hell I'm changing mine to Chinese. Then I'm gonna say all kinds of naughty things about you and the only thing you will be able to read is your name to assure you that I am in fact talking about you! Enjoy that translation App!!!

I will get this off my chest.... I use ellipses in almost any paragraph. See, I have already done it. I know it is not always grammatically correct, but I have always written this way. I usually have proper verb tense, decent spelling, and complete sentences... but those little dots just work their way into almost anything I write. I hope this isn't bad enough to not have my posts read or answered.

Is the plural of ellipsis even ellipses? Hmm...

Can't believe I read this whole thread! That's 20 minutes of my life I'll never get back, and what's left of my stomach is in a knot!

I have to say I am notorious for leaving out words. It drives me nut and pisses me off, and I do it a lot, even though I proof read. Sorry to anyone who is offended. Also, I have a crazy key board that skips around, so sometimes things are out of order and I don't realize it.

I have a hard time reading run-on sentences, so I just skip those. If I glance at post and it's more than 2 lines with no punctuation, I just skip it (unless it was addressed to me). It doesn't drive me crazy and no one knows I'm ignoring them! And that, my friends, is the beauty of online communication!!

[Elode 8,093]

@@liannatx I use them all the time too! So if people don't like it they can follow the dots right off my Sentence..............on to the next person. ha!!!
