I love annoying my sister, girlfriend and some friends irl.
Online I tend not to, but in one subtle way I love to.
Censoring a word before posting on Lemmy. Oh how I love watching people tweak bc the u in fuck is lightly cut off. Its so funny to me how big a deal it is to so many people.
What do you do knowing it’ll annoy people? Online or not?
But the ‘of’ is grammatically correct
You can find many discussions about that online, and it’s basically a BE / AE thing. In BE, it’s not correct, hence I’m annoyed a lot of the time.
Maybe its a trick to convince people to leave out ‘of’ to annoy people in the future
Of the ofs that I could leave out, the ofs that I have left out in the past, and the ofs that I typically include, the ofs that I typically include are the only ofs that get noticed, but the ofs I exclude might be the most impactful ofs. Hard to say for sure.
It’s accepted usage, but it’s kind of illogical and doesn’t add anything. If you take the ‘of’ out of the phrases they still make perfect sense.
(I use the ‘of’ myself, out of habit, as I learned to speak that way.)
That no reason remove words from semtences.
