And while we're at it, it's For all INTENTS AND PURPOSES

NOT

For all INTENSIVE PURPOSES

...because the latter would indicate that your next point applies to SUPER HARDCORE, FIERCE, HIGHLY FOCUSED PURPOSES ONLY, and I don't think that's what y'all want out of that.

IT’S NOT ‘PEEKED’ MY INTEREST

OR ‘PEAKED’

BUT PIQUED

‘PIQUED MY INTEREST’

THIS HAS BEEN A CAPSLOCK PSA

#adding clarity for those in the RB's who have difficulty with my addition to this post #most of the time I'm not going to put much up-front context into a RB chain because usually people don't want to read it #but in this instance it appears further context is appropriate #English is a horrible hellscape of a language even without specific neurological differences; I am sure it is far worse with #the intent of the post was not to counter that #a number of people expressed in past RBs that the chain was informative despite its tongue-in-cheek nature #I too found this post interesting and informative and given the comedic undertone made an addition in the same style #my comment comes from seeing the phrase in work emails between myself and others of a similar/greater educational level #it's about encounters with people I know who are part of my own community #bearing in mind that no #I would not call someone out over a small error like this whether inside or outside of the workspace #it would be rude and unprofessional to bring it up outside of the context of something like this (while quippish) resource post #most of us (save Known Assholes) in my community are decent enough to uphold dignity of members neurologically different from ourselves #I try to do so as well and I rely on that grace in turn #hoping this helps
