I fucking abhor the same writing style used by damn near everyone who writes articles. This one started with some history about Wal-mart. If it wasn't that, then it was going to be some bullshit paragraph or two from the writers point of view about how they had some realization while eating toast, in a futile attempt to.make themselves seem relevant and whimsical. Followed up by paragraphs that drag on to convey an idea that could have been communicatedI in a single sentence.
The only thing worse than this are "articles" which have one or two points, that simply restate the same fucking idea over and over again ad nauseum.
If these people don't end up fulfilling their dream of being a "writer", they most assuredly end up running meetings iin companies that eat up the better part of our days, and have us all leaving the room wondering why that wasn't just communicated in an email that we could have read in 3 minutes.
an idea that could have been communicated in a single sentence.
Exactly why they have to use these techniques.
It's low IQ news for low IQ people.
Used to come across articles when I used reddit that have a sub headline that repeats the main headline, then the first sentence of the article repeats it again, the second sentence repeats it again with 1-2 extra words added. And from then on, every paragraph is one sentence long that adds no new information. Literally the whole article is just a headline.
