This has annoyed me a lot. What has? People who miss the word "I" from the start of a sentence. Noticed this a lot on Amazon reviews (this very sentence is an example of what I mean).
Whilst looking for examples of missing the first word from a sentence I found something else that I hate: Reviews on Amazon that start "ok" or "right" or "well". Here's an example that starts with an "OK" and even better (or more annoying) has a missing "I" from the start of the second sentence.
"OK, Im one of those who played (and loved) SWOS back in the day on the Amiga.
Not really sure whats happened here - maybe Fifa and Pro Ev have just raised the bar but I was more than a bit disappointed, so much so that I (like another reviewer) sold the game on pretty quick. Its far too kick and rush and feels more like a rugby game at times. Also, the keepers are poor and its just way too easy, I got to the World Cup final first time playing it?!?"

About Me
- Milk
- I once went into a rage at the breakfast because I didn't know where the milk was. Toast and Tomato seemed oblivious to my angry questioning.
