Groucho Marx gave a lot to the world of comedy, but my favorite is a quote: "One morning, I shot an elephant in my pajamas. How he got into my pajamas I'll never know." You're probably thinking, "Was I supposed to pick up milk today?" or "What does that have to do with anything?"
Well, first, yes and the store is closing so you should probably burn some rubber. Second, it was Groucho's play on words showing how what we say, as clear as crystal as it may sound to us, isn't always what gets across to others. That was just literally talking; now we have texting, Facebook statuses, Instagram comments, tweets, whatever the hell you call a message on WhatsApp, etc. The more ways to communicate means the more ways to miscommunicate. So, do it right and don't blame others if you do it wrong. Which you probably are.
