I read just fine. The "come over" is YOUR problem and you should look into it. Any conformance to your standard would lead to dumbing down.
Call my words "nerdy" or "fancy" all you want, but you're just showing your anti-intellectual bias and you need to become a
better read person so that such words don't seem strange to you.
I also highlight for
emphasis, which conducts
tone. The textual world doesn't carry tone, so I've adapted. Does that make me a "linguistic whore"? (That's another rhetorical question, since it's absurd that merely talking on a blog or board can be construed as such.)
