OT Several of my posts in the last few days have shown up as duplicates, echoes. I don't like looking at that. Once is bad enough. I have always felt insecure about my grammar, punctuation and ability to convey my thoughts through, via? the written word. I try. I really try. Thank you grammar and punctuation junkies for being so gentle with me.

And the ink stains that are dried upon some line... You are all gentle on my mind. I've learned a lot here.

I tried it, too and decided I wouldn't even notice if someone said srimp.
I certainly can't say it so it comes out sounding different.

Just imagine...somebody actually paid to have this misspelled gem etched onto his/her body...




...and the richest irony is that he/she probably hasn't even noticed the misspelling.

I knew of some other possible effects of consuming white sugar, but this outcome was unknown to me.
It actually has the potential to turn somebody into an "urning"?
Additionally, I wonder about the particular clinic where those urnings would become patients.

In fairness to the person who wrote the sentence, it is turning. Turning is also on my clipboard. I didn't notice it didn't paste. Fortunately, it doesn't change your words about patients.
