What supposedly inviolable rules of style do you violate?

[jpgray]

I love passive voice. I really do. Also I never switch fork hands after slicing up meat.

1. I wear...white after Labor Day!

I don't know whether that violates style...or fashion sense, I don't know.

But I do wear white all year long.

I'm probably missing the entire point of your post.

[jpgray]

2. No, you've got it right! That's a good one

I've violated that one myself.

[skygazer]

3. Probably all of them

Since I don't really know what they are. I just do what I like and don't worry about what the rest of the world thinks of it.

4. I'm a woman of 47

who refuses to cut off her long, wild, wavy hair. It's my freak flag and I'm flying it forever, I don't care how old I get.

19. I'm with you on that one!

At 57, I still have long straight hair laying softly 1/2 down my back.

5. I sometimes wear Chucks with a skirt.

I mean, really, it's Seattle and no one cares.

9. I

drink my cereal milk out of the bowl.

I wear very bright socks every day to work.

I don't wear make up because I am naturally quite beautiful.

[ScreamingMeemie]

11. I wear my pajamas to the bus stop and then sometimes to the store...

I wear white socks with dark shoes...I am an embarassment to my kids.

[sundog]

[Mutley]

13. I use dashes and commas, a lot.

I also use passive voice. I don't even realize it until I go back and read it over again.

[Ladyhawk]

15. I sometimes wear the same clothes two days in a row.

Hey, I'm not smelly or anything. :shrug: And besides, I'm not out to impress anyone.

[Donkeyboy75]

16. I generally eschew bathing.

And I've worn brown shoes with a black belt.

[ulysses]

17. I like to string independent clauses together with "and".
