I apologize.
When I was in high school, I really enjoyed grammar. Maybe that’s silly, but I did. Do I consider myself a grammar geek? Maybe. Maybe not.
But when someone writes or speaks and there’s a grammatical error, I usually notice it right away.
So it’s killing me to read David’s tweets. I know it’s not him. I get that. But someone who is so well spoken and a talented author should employ someone who at least appears to sound like him. Otherwise, change your Twitter handle. Because at this point, its not you. It’s not someone coming across as sounding like you. It’s a lesser educated person with access to your account and it’s embarrassing.
At least with Gillian, I know it’s not her sometimes, but every one of her tweets sounds like her and is thoughtfully planned out. They all sound intelligent. Which, kudos to her for finding someone who can cause me to question if it’s her or not.
But, David’s? I know who isn’t tweeting under that account. And it makes me sad.
Dang, gurl. I couldn’t agree more! Great minds indeed. It is painfully obvious David is not writing or overseeing these tweets. When he does write his own, he’ll often go back and fix his mistakes by adding, deleting, reposting. It’s his own signature nerdiness & I love it!
So, when I see these horribly written tweets I am especially aggravated because not only does it get under my skin and grate on my nerves but it defies everything language is supposed to mean to David. For goodness sake, the man is a talented and expressive writer. Whoever is constructing these tweets hasn’t the modicum of knowledge, eloquence or care for the English language that DD possesses. And that’s a damn shame.
Don’t apologise. We all miss David’s double tweets.
