writing advice: never italicize words to show emphasis! if you’re writing well then the reader will know and you don’t need them!
me: oh really??? listen up, pal, you can just try an pull italics from my cold, dead fingers
“I never said she stole my money.”
VS.
“I never said she stole my money.”Â
“I never said she stole my money.”Â
“I never said she stole my money.”Â
“I never said she stole my money.”
“I never said she stole my money.”Â
“I never said she stole my money.”Â
“I never said she stole my money.”
It’s especially funny how every single one of those sentences has a completely different meaning. Besides, one shouldn’t make such generalized, idiotic statements as “never use italics,” especially not to writers. A unique style is one of the most crucial elements of writing, and use of italics is a good way to differentiate your writing from others’.
You cannot take my slanty letters away from me.
Touch my italics and I swear by my pretty floral bonnet I will end you
