Apparently there are some folks out there who don't realize that putting periods after every word isn't clever. Really, it was never clever and no amount of persisting in this annoying style will make it clever.
If I ever meet the person who started this ridiculousness I will punch him or her in the face while speaking really slowly. I implore you all to do the same to anyone you encounter who types like that. I realize this is a difficult task, being as this kind of behavior generally exists only in virtual environments. Thus, the onus has to be on friends and families.
If you see someone in your family engaging in such bothersome behavior, hit them hard. The same goes for friends. If you have a friend who has fallen into the trap of singular word punctuation, do the right thing and hit them hard. Speaking slowly while you are pummeling them is optional, but doing so will really drive home the point.
I hope that soon the perpetrators of this phenomenon will learn their lesson and this irritation that plagues so many of us will be eradicated. Together, I think we can make it happen.
One final note: it is important that the beatings occur as close in time to the offending behavior as possible. If too much time has passed they might not be able to adequately pair the pain they're receiving with the appropriate problematic behavior. Let's face it; these people probably engage in numerous behaviors worthy of a beating. Then again, random beatings could very well result in some of their other repulsive behaviors being stamped out, though not necessarily this particular behavior. Hmmm. I suppose I'll leave it up to you.

So, it seems as though I have been inclined to hit you, seeing as how you have typed in this stupid behavior you speak of. Did you think about that before you posted this blog?

This post was pretty silly but I suppose the humor was in the fact that
"So, it seems as though I have been inclined to hit you, seeing as how you have typed in this stupid behavior you speak of. Did you think about that before you posted this blog?"
So I guess it's supposed to be ironic or something. Yawn..
Not ironic, really. I expect any readers to hit me when I next see them. That's how committed I am to this cause.
In the title of this post you forgot to put a period after hard.
