the only reason i can think of for using imho on here is......if you dont, you stand the chance of having folks come back and saying just because you think that does not mean everyone does....thats your opinion
so, as a courtesy and to save someone the trouble of telling you that its only your opinion, which takes so many more letters and much more time.....you can just type imho
course, thats just my opinion

Not everyone thinks like that SeeksOnlyOne.

you have wasted font-dang it i tried to save you the trouble

The problem depends on what you are talking about. Everyone has hot button issues and if someone hit yours with wording that is judgmental and totally a gross generalization or clearly pointing out their own preference or opinion I am betting a lot your response would be worded significantly different.

I would not argue this country is way too politically correct but my view of this thread is just a more intelligent conversation of some people not accepting that the medium of written communication is vastly different then talking to a person face to face. Certain things are just done to try to communicate the meaning and tone of one’s words.

Spoken language is full of complexities and visual and tone clues to pick up the true meaning of the words spoken. Written words require extra words to try to equal that level. It is this attempt that people use the “extra” words. Many just like to make sure what they are trying to communicate is an accurate representation with minimal distortion and has nothing to do with political correctness.
