Dear Readers,
Here’s the haps:
I found this online somewhere and thought it was funny and interesting. I hope you will as well.
Italics are important
(Stick italics on each different word in a sentence and read the sentence out loud.)
Not my fault
I didn’t suggest this
Stop putting words in my mouth
I thought we were going to hire a hitman
Just because we could isn’t a good excuse
I suggested we rough him up
You killed the wrong person
I never said we should kill him
My sister did it

My entire family on both sides are Italics. Now we are third and fouth generation American Italics whose ancestors came from Italica. Italics have contributed a great deal to history esp in art and architecture and Italic food seems to be the favorite cusine of most nonItalics. SPQR
Yes, my cuisine is definitely italicized. Well, I expect that the caveat is that it’s Americanized-Italic. I had to look up SPQR.
Italics make every sentence a little longer. This is what they mean by itali-size.
😂🤣
Well, Herb, I went ahead and put the entire list of words into italics and I do not see the point you are making. Of course I am a rogue so there are times when I have put entire blog posts into italics just because I thought it was pretty…I also do it all the time with gmails. Nevertheless, I loved the post because it is well-written, well-presented and part of a blog which I dearly love to visit…YOURS!
Thank you, sir. You are always kindly spoken to me.
This is a lot of fun.. The thing is they’re all in the first person. See ow the change when you put them in third person. 🤣😎🙃
😂😆
As an aside, “My sister did it” was my favorite phrase growing up.
