    Default Stupid thought

    As I was reviewing a recent post and thinking how stupid it looks with the apostrophes all replaced with question marks, I briefly pondering on the weird software error causing it and how easy it would be to fix.

    Then I figured that Lt. Commander Data must be using some broken ass iOS software of the future with the same problem, because he never uses contractions.

    That is all. Continue about your business.
    Never complain; never explain.

    I?m not sure what you?re talking about.

    I?ve never seen any apostrophes replaced but question marks.

    I?ll have to start looking out for it now that you?ve mentioned it.

    Shouldn?t be a problem spotting that sort of thing.

    There's no such thing as a stupid question!

    Contractions are considered to be 'casual' and 'informal'. This would be a major faux pas for Data.

    I wish technology solved people issues. It seems to just reveal them.
