capitalisation

Things That Annoy Me

Well, if you haven’t noticed, the title for this update is not capitalised. Trust me, I needed a dang lot of willpower not to correct that.

If you ever went to elementary school (or any other school even), your English teacher would tell you to capitalise every start of a sentence, names and so on.

Okay, I can’t explain every single thing that needs to be capitalised, so go to this website to learn more! http://m.wikihow.com/Capitalise-Correctly

Anyways, it is always irritating to see a certain name or proper noun not being capitalised when it should have, and as usual, I would have this strong urge to correct them (but I can’t).

But then again, there are others who capitalise every freaking word in a sentence and that bothers me as much as the first case.

 

Examples (based on real cases):

my mom went to england last year with a friend named henry.

Corrected version: My mom went to England last year with a friend named Henry.

christmas is celebrated in december.

Corrected version: Christmas is celebrated in December.

My Cat Jumped Over The Blue Wall Just Now.

Corrected version: My cat jumped over the blue wall just now.

(Even as I was typing the wrong examples, Word Documents was correcting my capitalisation. My computer outsmarts those people. And again, a lot of willpower not to correct the mistakes.)

 

That’s it folks! If you have any other issues you wanna bring up, lemme know in the comments or you can pm me in the messages if you wanna have a chapter/topic all to yourself (I’ll credit you!). Ciao!

Male preg does not bother me as much but what makes me cringe in when the male who is pregnant calls the baby ' my bundle of joy'....I don't really know why it makes me cringe, but it does.

Chapter 22: I agree with you ONE THOUSAND TIMES OVER!!!!! Those smart Alecks just makes me want to punch them in the throat! Just GTFO! And I despise fictions that use Xi as LuHan's last name it had me hating LuHan for a while because for the life of me it confused me when I started out. It's the same with those who us Li for HanKyung/HanGeng. It's Lu Han and Han Geng, dammit!

Chapter 22: A lot of fanfics here have this: except the main female character(s) who is supposedly "different": while the rest female population is "obsessed" with the main male character(s), she doesn't even care about them, the rest is filled with makeup, she doesn't put on much (sometimes even purposingly uglify herself), the rest is always in short, revealing clothing, she doesn't even like dresses... I know it's to make the main female character look good, but that doesn't mean the other regular females are all the same. And even if they do things like that, why authors have to make them become so easy, so... disgusting? It's only how they choose to dress, how to act... not because they're all bad like how they're discribed. Sometimes main male character(s) suffer this as well.
Sorry for the rant, but I hate it when people make other people look bad just to make someone look good.

Chapter 19: Somehow chapter 19 suddenly makes me want to rant all day long. Okay i have to admit, i do curse alot sometimes (okay, i do it all the time tbh) but let's all think again, there are freaking CHILDREN on asianfanfics (mainly my little brother, who now curses alot due to the fanfics that he was reading), wouldn't it be a bad influence on them? For instance, in my country (mostly my juniors) say alot. When i was in fourth grade, i didn't even know what that word meant. But now, the fourth graders at a school nearby says it like it's not a big deal. I don't know why, it irritates me alot when the ones that seems so innocent says a word they shouldn't even know. End of rant :3

P.s Anime? Should i list alot? I mean i can give you a whole page of animes you can watch. I don't know which genre you would like so, for starters if you haven't watched it yet, you can watch “Kaichou wa maid-sama”, which is very funny to be exact. I'm feeling the urge to give you a whole list to be honest.

P.p.s You made me check my comment for a long time before actually posting it. Ahaha, you changed my writing style, and to be honest, it helps me alot in my writing exams. So, Thank you :3
I still think there are alot of mistakes though.（＾ω＾）

Chapter 21: I have to agree on this, particularly the first point. It is just really unrealistic to conceive after you have just had a miscarriage. I know that some people are just misinformed when it comes to certain things, but things shouldn't always be put in a story just because they could happen in real life.
