Because if you're only "....offering solid advise....", then make sure YOU spell the word correctly.
The word is "advice" in the context you used it, not advise. Advice is a noun. Advise is a verb.
Ya' see how this works? It cuts both ways. Now you have damaged YOUR "reputation" as an I-know-what's-best-for-others expert.
Your use of the word "peril", which means "serious and immediate danger", is hyperbole. An over-the-top description of what will happen to my reputation if I don't follow your archaic rule. I can hardly keep from shaking in my boots in fear of this "peril" you speak of.
Best to stick to the subject matter of the thread instead of handing out sloppy "advise" to others about their choice of what words to use. You've got problems of your own to take care of.
Because if you’re only “....offering solid advise....”, then make sure YOU spell the word correctly.
See the difference? And yes, I caught it after I posted, but there is no editing on this site once posted, so yes, I am occasionally a victim of the “spelling Nazis”.
But belittling through the silly names like “Obumbo”, or “democraps”, etc. Is both intentional and juvenile.
And yes, I mean “peril”. It is not over the top. As you pointed out, it means “serious and immediate danger”, which is the truth. I thought the OP was good but when I saw the words used to describe democrats and republicans, I thought, “What is this guy, 12?”
Of course, it depends on the audience. Like I said, it will go right by much of the choir. But not all.
Any political pundit that wants to be taken seriously outside his circle of friends will refrain from using the cutely degrading euphemisms of people’s and groups’ names.
How often to you hear pundits on the radio or Television, or respected sites like Conservativetreehouse, townhall, American Thinker, et al, use these silly euphemisms? Never. Once they do, they’ve reverted to amateur hour.
I really hate when I see it on FR.
There is not one thing wrong with trying to raise the bar on this site. It is a good thing to do.
BTW, those that think they know it all really annoy those of us who do. :-)
