And lo the end is nigh (part IV)

It's come.
 
It's finally happened.

And I don't know how I feel about it.

I've been reading blogs of various figures of interest recently, not move stars, I mean honestly, and while reading through these blogs, I found a grammar error. It was a simple enough problem to fix, but they didn't.

and it irked me.

reading further along, I found another error. this one more serious. I think my eye literally twitched. I kept going further and further until I couldn't take it anymore and switched to a different channel.

but it happened again.

ruined! I've been ruined!

where once I was able to follow the strain of thought of people who felt they knew what they were talking about, all I see now is their need to use something besides word to correct themselves.

I realize while writing this, that my own grammar while writing is horrendous in the extreme. For which I humbly appologize.

On the other hand, I'm not some (relatively) famous or well known person whose blog will be read by thousands of people.

I have no expectations of the things I write, but these affluent people of position and most of whom command at least some respect, that their work is so flawed...

It's going to take some time simply so that I can read their works once more.

  1. Sometimes I feel the same when I see a common grammatical or punctuation error in a public place or on the tv or Internet or something. Haha. Editors, people! But mistakes like those keep me on my toes.
