Or when stuff like quotation marks or trailing punctuation marks are linked when they don’t need to be. Tidy linking makes me happy.,Iris: Impact vs. affect. This year, “impact” as a verb is showing up a lot. Impact makes a great noun, but it can be a problematic verb or just a bit too much, particularly when the less intense “affect” can take its place.

And for many people, they’d rather feel anxious and stressed than helpless.,This is why no one ever gets sent to jail for feeling angry — you can’t control whether you feel angry or not, and therefore, it’s not something you can be held accountable for.,You need an ally —for example, a trusted friend, a family member, or a therapist. You need someone to keep you grounded when you doubt yourself and know what’s going on with you should something dangerous happen to you.,If you want to become happier, calmer, and more emotionally stable — especially in your relationships — start paying more attention to your expectations. And once you start noticing them, adjust them to be more realistic or throw them out entirely.,David: When a word or phrase is written by a majority of online users the wrong way: Like “everyday.” Instead of “I drink a ton of coffee every day,” they write “I drink a ton of coffee everyday.” I hate that.,Creators Hub asked our copy editing team what errors they see again and again and what personal pet peeves they have when it comes to style.
