I’ll be honest, I’m a bit jealous of his confidence.
According to my boss, it’d get him promoted
Sadly it’s more common than I’d like everywhere I’ve worked too
And his skill with a rapier.
Or a dull knife lol
what’s with these texts without any punctuation where everything becomes one long sentence and you have to read it three times to figure out how to read it I feel like it’s getting more common
I approve that comment was really on point or as some of the younger people say on fleek if they say that anymore but regardless have an approval point from me it s the internet s currency after all
We can’t bust heads like we used to but we have our ways one trick is to tell stories that don’t go anywhere like the time I caught the ferry to Shelbyville I needed a new heel for my shoe so I decided to go to Morganville which is what they called Shelbyville in those days so I tied an onion to my belt which was the style at the time now to take the ferry cost a nickel and in those days nickels had pictures of bumble bees on them gimme five bees for a quarter you’d say Now was I Oh yeah the important thing was that I had an onion tied to my belt at the time you couldn’t get where onions because of the war the only thing you could get was those big yellow ones.
whats really awful is when someone writes a huge block of text with no punctuation whatsoever and you cant understand anything they wrote without having to reread it 20 times and even then its probably still not clear what theyre trying to come across and by the fourth time you think you should have encountered a period it gets super tiring and you want to give up but at the same time maybe this person has something worth saying so you really try and you get to the end and you think no maybe i missed something so you go back to the top and you reread the whole thing and you try to reread sentence by sentence where you think the sentences start and end but nope none of it was worth reading at all and you dont even know why they posted it when theyre clearly only semiliterate why do people not pay attention in school english classes is what i want to know and also its super annoying when the post is very long and theres not even a paragraph break or two to help you get through it if you know what i mean im really tired of these people they need to go back to school or something what are they stupid
I consider this art.
You have no idea how difficult that was for a pedantic fellow like me to write.
I can’t tell you the number of times I’ve edited one of my comments due to noticing a spelling or punctuation issue.
people don’t read books any more only text messages and social media and sometimes subtitles so this is a more natural way of speaking that saves you from having to go to the other page of keys thats way to much work anyway ykwim
If I had to guess, it’s probably people using talk to text.
He’s trying to save up for a tape measure!
Carpenter square would really do a lot here. Lots of low level wood workers fail to grasp the utility of the square.
As well with the carpenter’s pencil. Still working to learn all the tricks with both tools.
Actually the new ones look decently square to the outside post apart from the bottom one. That old section is almost definitely not perfectly squared and it takes skill to match and blend the imperfections.
Agreed, I’d take a square and a story stick of sorts over a tape measure
He should save up for some punctuation first. Got dam.
Has the 5 year old been drinking? Because I feel like a sober 5 year old would do a better job.
I’m going to be kind and assume he’s on the piss take. Because that seems like the kind of shit I’d post.
lst class problems
I think he was trying to say he just finished his first class
And spelled it LST
He’s a carpenter, not an English teacher
Well… He tried.
They mean swords. They must be talking about swords, right?
I can see he’s confusion. I post pictures on the internet and receive comments about the picture, I sometimes fail to realize what we’re talking about too.
