I know, right?

I've been trying to write properly, clearly, and with the most expressive words I can come up with for many decades. I try to punctuate well, and to use functional formatting that I hope helps to effectively convey whatever it is that I'm about. I try to improve as time goes on.

And I do this because if I'm going to bother with writing something for others to read, then I want my intended meaning to be easily-understood.

But increasingly, the instances where I manage to not screw any of that up too terribly result in a snarky and insulting retort in return.

And that kind of response is just not useful to anyone. I mean: What would people presume to have me do, instead? Become less-literate? Die in a fire? (Worse?)

fuh.
