Write a new blog
| 26-4-2009 - Can We Be CLEAR |
My mood while writing this blog: Irritable |
I know I am going to offend someone, so rather than try and be strategic and tip-toeing around the issue,....I am just going to say it.
I love coming on this site and reading the Blogs, Postings and Birth Stories etc. BUT with that said I must say that it drives me absolutely insane when I log on to someones page and they have a busy background, micro font and no utilization of line spacing.
Usually the people that have pages like this are ones requesting feedback or support. I would love to help out IF I could first read what the issue is.
I'm pretty sure I am not the only one that this issue bothers. It makes it no better that my eyes are not that great anyhow even with glasses and pregnancy makes them worse.
I have started just skipping over the pages altogether.
Sincerely,
Grumpy, Intolerant, Bloated, Irritable, Brash & Blind Pregnant Lady :)

Wednesday, 3 Jun I totally agree with you. I thought that I was the only one that felt this way, and felt bad for my impatience, and criticalness. Thanks for sharing your opinion and helping me not to feel bad. Big hugs! AllyCat62683 -
Wednesday, 29 Apr I agree with you on that as well. I often have lost interest in reading pages I cannot understand. I like to update my profile and keep it clear and understandable because what fun is it for someone to try to sit there and read something they cannot understand or see. bundleofperez -
Monday, 27 Apr Well, since we're all being honest! lol You know what drives me nuts? It drives me nuts when the only thing people blog about are complaints and negative things. Like you, I am grumpy, intolerant, and irritable and what I need is some positivity. I've actually deleted people as friends who's blogs are about nothing but constant whining. "I'm getting fat, I'm going to be so bored on maternity leave, I wanted a girl but instead I got a boy", BLAH BLAH BLAH- Then there are the people who are constantly rambling about things I can not even comprehend. "my mothers sisters boyfriends cousin's aunt" I just can't keep up!

Sunday, 26 Apr I totally agree! What drives me nuts is (like you) blogs that run together. No punctation and 3 or 4 sentences rolled into one. Or some of them just make no sense. I understand being flustered. but if you need advice, take time to formulate your jumbled thoughts and then write your blog. We can't help each other if we can't read comprehend the problem. I always make sure I have a 14 point font. Plus, I proof read when I'm done. LADYSOAL -

Sunday, 26 Apr I think you made your point - which I totally appreciate because I am so with you here. Some people write books on here & you can't read a thing they are saying because the font is so small & the entire blog runs together. Anyways - Great advice! I always go back & preview my blogs to make sure they are readable & when I come across one on someone elses page that isn't, I often highlight it with my mouse so it is readable. Regardless, I hate when people use the small fonts or fancy fonts!!! It is so difficult to read! Artisticchik -
Sunday, 26 Apr Nope NEVER my intention to be unkind. Always my intention to be clear and direct. :) gabbygabs20 -
Sunday, 26 Apr lmfao I so get you. I make sure my font is always LARGE and BOLD that way if I can see what I'm writing then others will be able to read it.
