The mistake I wish everyone would correct is the misuse of the word “myself.”  It has essentially just replaced the word “me.”
”If you have any questions about the presentation, just contact Dave or myself and we will help you.”
No, it’s just “me.”  “Contact me. . .”
I don’t even get how anybody can get this wrong when the word “me” is so basic and easy.
”Myself” is a reflective word.  It is only correct when “I” is the subject of the sentence.
“I always give myself at least 20 minutes to get ready.”
“I view myself as a solid employee.”
“When I sprained my ankle I took myself to the doctor.”
Anyway, it’s a bit of a curse to notice this one because it is rampant and widespread and, for me, it’s cringy.  I kind of think people using “myself” in place of “me” think it sounds more intelligent or something.  I was at a college tour presentation and the presenter said something like “After graduating, this was clearly the best role for myself.”  This coming from someone selling the value of the education they got there.
Nails on a chalkboard.
If I ask MYSELF how I feel about this post, I would say it was too long and possible pathetically boring.
So feel free to hit ME with the “lighten up Francis” meme.
 
 

Yeah, but come on Taylor.  It didn’t take long for you to end up talking about a BLM shirt.
You have made it very easy to view your takes as a bit contaminated by your way of thinking.

Typos suck.  I bet I have to go back and make typo corrections on 80% of my posts.

This is not the Angels best lineup.

Washington has a heavy hand in coaching infielders.  It is also very possible Neto is just trying to apply something that Washington is trying to get him to do.

David Fletcher?  That’s a really bad comparison.  Fletcher was a blue collar worker who would just grind to overcome the fact that he really didn’t have the high end baseball skills. Kind of a “getter dun” somehow guy.
Thats pretty much the exact opposite of Neto, who has all the actual skills.

If Thaiss were a drummer, he would be one of those super annoying drummers that never stops spinning the drumsticks.

You mean the young Mike Trout is back.

Rendon looks really rough in the field. Every throw is an adventure. 

I guess his horrible swing has come full circle?

Harry and Anita were a nice couple.

Good for him but I was one million percent done with him here.

To be precise he is due $114m.

I’m sure Gubi is a nice guy but seriously when was the last time he said something actually insightful, educational, or genuinely interesting?  He is a livestream library of “duh.”  And that’s fine it fills time whatever.  But at best it is tolerable because it is so vanilla that it is easily ignorable.

I would like to officially request that the phrase “face adversity” be taken away from announcers and writers.
The irony is it would force them to, for once, come up with something original.  How would they respond to such a challenge?
