I'd like to know how to write my msgs like someone my age... sick of ppl telling me I talk like I'm OLDER, especially online. Idc if you think there's nothing wrong with it. It's drawing attention, and I don't like it.
I came across this quote from Emily Post. I think it still applies today:
"Not to attract attention to oneself in public, is one of the fundamental rules of good breeding. Shun conspicuous manners ... in a word do not attract attention to yourself. Do not expose your private affairs, feelings or innermost thoughts in public. You are knocking down the walls of your house when you do (Post, Emily. Etiquette: "the Blue Book of Social Usage". United Kingdom, Funk & Wagnalls, 1927)."
