What supposedly inviolable rules of style do you violate? |
|
I love passive voice. I really do. Also I never switch fork hands after slicing up meat.

1. I wear...white after Labor Day! |
|
I don't know whether that violates style...or fashion sense, I don't know.
But I do wear white all year long.
I'm probably missing the entire point of your post.

Since I don't really know what they are. I just do what I like and don't worry about what the rest of the world thinks of it.

drink my cereal milk out of the bowl.
I wear very bright socks every day to work.
I don't wear make up because I am naturally quite beautiful.

I also use passive voice. I don't even realize it until I go back and read it over again.
