I now have a visceral reaction to being told that I'm ABSOLUTELY RIGHT!, for example. It seemed an innocuous phrase before -- rather like em dashes -- but has now become grating and meaningless. Robotic and no longer human.

I'm launching a new service to tell people that they are absolutely, 100% wrong. That what they are considering is a terrible idea, has been done before, and will never work.

Possibly I can outsource the work to HN comments :)

This sounds like a terrible idea that has been done before and will never work.

Yeah BrandonM got unfairly maligned but it's still funny.

You're exactly right, this really gets to the heart of the issue and demonstrates that you're already thinking like a linguist.
