Ha, appreciated, but it’s not personal preference. It’s just house style to keep thread titles legible, somewhat descriptive, and looking consistent (by tweaking typos and applying what I always heard referred to as title caps). It just helps to keep us from looking like, um…

This reminds me, I travel every week for a few days. My wife knows which AirBnB I stayed in specifically because of the way my hair smells.
‘Oh… you stayed at the birthing center again?’ <<<< just a hotel like room next to a BC.
‘I hate when you stay there, Irish spring house, huh?’
I actually really appreciate it. I let a new hire go last week because they all but refused to correct formatting on documents.

Back when AIM was a thing, I once had a friend compliment me for using punctuation and capitalization when messaging, so I totally get it. Just didn’t want it to seem like I’m the reason the style is in place here.
I’m currently recruiting copywriters for my team, and we’ve had some shockingly-formatted CVs. The best, though, was the lad who misspelled Curriculum Vitae. On his copywriter application.
However he did misspell it as Curriculum Vitiate and given that the definition of vitiate is “to spoil or impair the quality of” maybe he was actually a genius.

Conveniently related confession: Wrapping my T-ransformation with pics tomorrow, which means a buzzer session tonight. If I remember right, there was a little over a pound difference before and after last time. Definitely easier than cutting carbs.

I think getting stronger and bigger have sorta ruined my life.
More women hit on me.
More dudes mean mug me.
More random people ask me dumb questions.
More people ask me how much I can bench (but I lie and tell them I don’t bench only squat and deadlift lol)
I can only wear sweatpants basically
Have to order custom suits
Always want veggies
People ask me to spot them
Friends wives/gfs/fwb ask to pick them up (I always refuse cuz that’s just weird)
Wife asks her friends to touch my butt because how hard it is
Clients always sarcastically say “I guess you don’t know what a gym is”
And I can go on and on
If I was in my 20’s and single none of these would be problems. But now as a married man running a business it’s the worst.

Just kidding being bigger and stronger changed my life for the better. Would never go back lol. Turned me into the man I wanted to become. The iron never lies. If you put in work you’ll reap the benefits. If you haven’t put in work, your body is going to hurt lol.

Your friends (with benefits) are feeling neglected. Maybe you should pick them up for a movie and dinner.
I bought some Nike metcons (med height, hard heel - Rob Phillipus wears them) and tbh they actually made my squat feel worse. I’m sure with time to get used to them they’ll feel better, but for now I’m having to mess with my stance a lot
Yea, I’ve always squatted barefoot or in flats. I used to squat in workboots, to be honest.
Oh, the old days of Starting Strength. I didn’t even know what a vegetable was.
I’m nostalgic for a crippling nicotine addiction and a body resembling a sweet potato someone left in the microwave 4 minutes too long. @T3hPwnisher see? I do contribute to your blog traffic.

Confession: I started taking creatine again. The 5% nutrition creatine must be pretty good because I bloated within a few days of taking it to the point that I had trouble wiping my own ass. I’m now done with creatine for the time being until I slim up a bit.

Your specification of it being your own leads me to believe you are comparing this against some sort of control group…

One of my subjects at uni had a group assignment where you were randomly assigned to a group.
I ended up dating one of my group members. After we got together, she told me she had decided to date me before she had met or seen me because my emails and instant messages had punctuation, capital letters and spelling wasn’t atrocious.

I hesitate to post this, because last time I did I got ass-crawled for it. And not even for its problematic punctuation! It was because of its snobbish pro-literacy message. But anyway, here it is, my favorite imperfectly punctuated punctuation meme:
