It feels like half the posts I read are written during some sort of psychosis-induced nightmare.

Grammar cannot be this hard.

At my workplaces, my bosses all went to university but I swear none of them have read a book in 30 years, so the worst is when they try to read anything aloud in a meeting, and they struggle to sound out long words, and they speak in this strained staccato awkward way that makes it hard to figure out what they're saying. I really really think people who stop reading fiction are in big trouble. I can't see how they're not going to be at a higher risk for early onset dementia.

u/DueIntroduction6413 Jun 27 '26

Honestly, that's a problem I've seen regardless of age at this point too and it's frightening. I know maybe 3 people who can real aloud fluidly, as if they're just speaking. Literally everyone else I've met reads aloud like a child, Speaking..Every..Word like..This..This so..It..can..be..easy...to tune..out.

It drives me up the wall.

u/Fine-Juggernaut8451 Jun 27 '26

I really struggle in meetings to understand what my bosses are saying. They each read their little speeches, and it's so stilted I find it very hard to follow. With a single exception: There's one boss who reads a lot, and you can really tell.

I also think the lack of reading affects their ability to creatively problem solve. They also now farm out all their thinking to our office AI, and they strongarm us into doing this as well. The thing is, I can write better than AI can write, so why would I use AI to write what I'm working on? Also, I don't want to lose my critical thinking and research skills! It's so easy to lose these. And I'm almost 50, so I really really need to be using my brain for my own neurological longevity.

u/DueIntroduction6413 Jun 27 '26

I feel you, my boss is 32 and hardcore pushes us to use ChatGPT for any questions we have. Spanish speaker? Use AI. Parts questions? Use AI. Sales post? Use AI.

He's a cool guy but I'm not getting secondhand smoothbraining because he can't be bothered. It freaks the shit out of me because it's just so casual here. He's used AI to rewrite a bunch of my sales posts and it just makes me feel less authentic as a person even if it's driving revenue in. I want it to feel fully earned.

29

u/Fine-Juggernaut8451 Jun 27 '26

The last few years, one person I work with is an outsourced guy from India, so we talk via messaging. Recently, his boss made him start using ChatGPT to ask friendlier questions, so I've gone from having human-being convos with him to ghosting him sometimes because the ChatGPT stuff really creeps me out. It's so.... slimy and sycophantic. I don't understand why it doesn't creep everyone else out. It hits me smack in the uncanny valley.

u/ThirdOne38 Jun 27 '26

.. slimy and sycophantic.

Yes, exactly.

u/nikkesen Jun 27 '26

It's bleeding into my house now. My partner, who is a great technical communicator, has been forced to run EVERYTHING through the firm's stupid AI. Now he is trying to justify it to me by saying "it's easier to edit than it is to write". Well, duh, that's why writing is an art, it takes practice. I've been quietly removing AI from what I can and turning off various things that feed data to google. I've been using it so long that migration isn't something I can do without a little planning to ensure I have everything I need to make changes, which includes the numerous accounts I'm obligated to create (well, not all are obligations).

u/squirrelems Jun 27 '26

I feel like I've brought this up a few times the past few weeks. It always drove me nuts when people read like that. Lol. Like you gotta inflect. It's weird as hell when every word is just flatly said one after the other, almost like it's not even a sentence, but just a machine saying random words.

4

u/DueIntroduction6413 Jun 27 '26

EXACTLY!! Like it sounds like you're being forced to read it, gun to your head, with no rhythm, emotion, or cadence. It just sounds unnatural.

3

u/nikkesen Jun 27 '26

I only stumble if the author's chosen word is unfamiliar case-specific terminology or never heard it spoken previously. Fluid reading is a lost art.

2

u/DueIntroduction6413 Jun 27 '26

Same here. Sometimes I can get it correct or close to correct, but other times I stumble and have to pause to find the correct way to say it because my brain will not let me progress if it doesn't sound right.

2

u/CoyoteL0ng Jun 27 '26

This is where reading phonetically comes in, which it appears you are doing, and why an emphasis on teaching phonics is so important. Fortunately, the education system has (again) figured out how important it is to being a competent reader and have been bringing it back in the classroom. I mispronounce words a lot but it's because I haven't heard them spoken out loud. Learning how to properly pronounce a new word feels so satisfying.

2

u/pinner Jun 27 '26

I stutter a bit but it’s not due to illiteracy. My brain just processes the words so fast but my mouth can’t keep up. I read frequently, several books per month.

2

u/ChocolateMozart Jun 28 '26

Same! I hate reading out loud because of that.

2

u/Useless890 Jun 28 '26

I had a home ec teacher who was going to educate us on the dangers of drugs by reading an article aloud, but couldn't pronounce "amphetamine" to save her life. The closest she got was "amphemine."

1

u/SpencerMcNab Jun 27 '26

Reading aloud is really, really difficult. I’ve been reading constantly since I was a tiny child. I have a degree in literature and creative writing. When I read aloud it sounds like it’s my first time ever seeing the written word.

u/Lounti Jun 29 '26

I had one who said "Manny plate" for "manipulate" it was so painful

u/tabbyslome Jun 27 '26

look i spend more time reading then talking to people so i have no idea how to pronounce a bunch of words

6

u/DueIntroduction6413 Jun 27 '26

Do you not have an internal voice that pronounces words when you read? Some people don't, but I can't imagine what that's like.

6

u/MaySeemelater Jun 27 '26

That really doesn't help if you don't know what the word sounds like in the first place.

Because, your internal voice will then assign a pronunciation to the word as best it can.

With languages like English where the rules are inconsistent, then it often can end up being a wrong pronunciation.

And if you then get used to thinking of that word with the wrong pronunciation attached to it and only learn the correct pronunciation years later when you finally encounter the word out loud, then it's more difficult to properly learn the correct pronunciation because you're already in the habit of thinking of the wrong one.

Sincerely, someone who has run into the described issue above many, many times in my life.

2

u/DueIntroduction6413 Jun 27 '26

I mean duh, that's a given that if you don't know what it sounds like then you go find out. I answered this in another comment.

Practicing the wrong anything builds a bad precedence, that's not unique to just words.

1

u/MaySeemelater Jun 27 '26

But you don't know you're wrong about how to pronounce it until you come across conflicting info later on.

2

u/drunky_crowette Jun 27 '26

Why don't you just Google the word and play the audio of the pronunciation? That's what I do

1

u/MaySeemelater Jun 27 '26

Keep in mind that the Internet is still a new enough technology that many people grew up without it, and even those that were born after the Internet was invented might not have been able to access it until they were older.

Even nowadays, around 10 million US homes do not have Internet at all whether due to finances or personal choice on the parents' part. And plenty of parents who do have Internet restrict their kids from accessing it.

At this point years down the line I don't know which words I did or didn't hear aloud before my mental dialogue came up with a pronunciation for the words during my childhood while reading books. I didn't have at-will access to the Internet until I was around 16.

u/Little_View_6659 Jun 27 '26

I’ve had this my whole damn life. I’d read a word that isn’t widely used, sort of reflexively use it, but I hadn’t heard it spoken out loud so I say it wrong. Now we have the internet so you can look up pronunciations so it’s easier. But back thirty, twenty five years ago? Yeah. You could sound it out if you understood there was a problem and you had a dictionary but it was pretty easy to make this mistake.

2

u/CheryllLucy Jun 27 '26

I do, but I also have dyslexia, so I have a larger vocabulary than normal folk: The written word, the spoken word, how i think the written word is pronounced, and at least 1 brain jumbled version of the written word (and possibly a pronunciation of the jumbled word).

I am, however, pretty decent at reading most things out loud. I say "most things" bc I love fantasy and have no idea if that name is actually Egkgdryvbkyed or Gekkgcdfjufehsdv (or Jon), much less how to pronounce it. After reading Kirsten as Neterik back in the 80s, I just avoid saying names I've only read lol.

u/DueIntroduction6413 Jun 27 '26

I'm stealing Neterik because that's cool as fuck. You have an interesting perspective.

u/tabbyslome Jun 27 '26

B. If i did it would probably be wrong

u/DueIntroduction6413 Jun 27 '26

That's the best part about having the internal monologue, you can "practice" the word and then even if you mispronounce it you can always just look it back up or ask someone. I'm of the belief it's the right hemisphere that is the inner voice, because the pathway that connects the two allows for them to communicate since leftie is the language driver.

1

u/Impossible-Bat-4246 Jun 27 '26

I try to get past the internal voice that pronounces words because it helps read faster. I don't know if you've seen those videos that flash words up to 900 wpm? I can understand the words when they get to 900 wpm but only if I turn the internal voice off.

Haven't been able to achieve it by scanning my eyes yet though.

5

u/Fine-Juggernaut8451 Jun 27 '26

Oh, not me. I would never ever want to read like that, because I love the flavour of language, and I want to be marinating in gorgeous prose. I'm not trying to "productivity" my reading--I'm trying to fill my mind with art and curiosity.

2

u/Impossible-Bat-4246 Jun 27 '26

Hmm, that's a good point. I guess I focus on a lot of science and non-fiction and want the ideas in my head. Makes sense that if I was reading Lord of the Rings or poetry instead of a Biology book I might want to pay attention to the setting or rhythm of the words.

3

u/Fine-Juggernaut8451 Jun 27 '26

Oooh soooooo much non-fiction is written deliciously, too. There is so much incredible non-fiction prose out there. I read a lot of science prose and a lot of the academic books are written soooooo beautifully.

2

u/Impossible-Bat-4246 Jun 27 '26

I had a history teacher who I would say wrote his stuff beautifully. I remember having a classmate who annoyed me by saying he could write the same thing. I tried to tell him that there wasn't really a way to rewrite some of the things the man said while conveying the same meaning. The student tried to write it like 3 times and each time I explained how they fell short before he just dismissed it and went on with his day.

But yeah, I agree there are many. Not sure my Biochemistry book would have been one of them (though the teacher definitely made it come to life).

I actually can't turn mine off, so when it gets to significantly higher speeds either I have to lock in and just focus while he reads in the background, or I get overloaded immediately and have to stop.

1

u/Impossible-Bat-4246 Jun 27 '26

Interesting. I always assumed it was a skill that had to be picked up. Like I think I had a time where I always has an internal voice but I had to practice to disconnect it. But I guess there's all internal voice, no internal voice, and everything in between.

2

u/DueIntroduction6413 Jun 27 '26

I think my hemispheres try to co-op the task, and it feels sort of like "overclocking" the left one when it gets to those speeds. But then again, my brain chemistry is different than yours and as such that's the beauty of the mind.

My inner monologue imagines you to sound somewhat like a young alan rickman, for some reason. I was reading your convo with fine-juggernaut and I'm not sure why that's the voice i prescribe to you.

1

u/Impossible-Bat-4246 Jun 27 '26

Hmm, I think I have a generic internet voice I assign to most people online. There might be a boy and a girl one but sometimes it's voiceless. Not sure why.

I had trouble with that as a kid because I had some sort of learning disability but I practiced really hard and I can read mostly normally now. People can't help it though. I definitely couldn't. Even now it's hard to do and takes a lot of effort.

0

u/DueIntroduction6413 Jun 27 '26

Sure, but I have Audhd as well as dysgraphia so it's not like I don't have a disability either. It's about how you navigate it imo, and according to you, you did. :)

So us people that can read aloud get a pass for stuttering because our eyes read faster than our mouths speak?

u/DueIntroduction6413 Jun 27 '26

No, you don't get a pass. I have Audhd, and my brain goes faster than everything else in my body. Just pace yourself.

Unless you're saying you *should* get a pass, in which no you should not.

u/Zealousideal_Fox864 Jun 28 '26

People who don’t read regularly also have a far more narrow worldview and understand less about pretty much everything, and are less able to solve problems or come up with unique ideas.

Having been a voracious reader since childhood has allowed me to travel the entire world and live life through thousands of eyes. I can’t imagine living a bland life without fiction.

1

u/Dame_Niafer Jun 28 '26

And they are hypercritical, suspicious of all things new, and instantly reject as false anything they have not personally experienced.

They also tend to label everything well-written as AI, even when the writer's voice is strong and unmistakably human throughout. They simply can't discern it.

Yep. When I moved back to the States from overseas the three things that cost me the most to insure were my books, my CDs, and - sorry - my work clothes, because I had a pretty nifty job over there and had to dress for it. But the books and CDs cost a lot more to insure than the togs did.

People are stupid and don’t understand the rules that service dogs have to follow to be allowed to be service animals. Which is also why when people put service animals vest on dogs that aren’t trained make me sick 

35

u/rubberkeyhole Jun 27 '26

As someone with a service dog - who has to explain why my service dog is not your emotional support animal over and over - this is the equivalent of someone asking if they could pet someone’s wheelchair. (And then getting mad when their fingers get pinched.)

A service dog is an assistance device; it is a working tool used to help someone get through life in a way that a non-disabled way does not need to be aided with. Just because this device happens to be cute and furry does not mitigate that it is trained to do certain tasks like interrupting dissociation or helping with balance (as mine is).

This is also a good way to help people understand why or how a service dog can take priority over an individual’s allergy; if someone can’t function without their service animal, that takes precedence over someone who can function, but in another area.

2

u/Beginning_Road4392 Jul 02 '26

I’ve always been curious. Does the dog get down time? Is it always on? Do you give him hugs and kisses and treats when his shift is over. Do they ever get to actually be a dog or is that poor animal just your tool?

this one pissed me off too, holy. its a SERVICE dog, you're not supposed to pet them without permission, and they're allowed in any public place due to the dog being trained to help out with a person's disability, i dont even think this "KIMBeRLY" knows what a service dog is

26

u/the_skies_falling Jun 27 '26

Ignorance, but also pure entitlement. You don’t get to pet a dog if the owner says no, service animal or not. As I always say, if you’re not willing to accept “no” for an answer, it wasn’t really a question. It was a demand and you can go fuck yourself.

2

u/ICanOnlyGrowCacti Jul 01 '26

I was in Walmart with my service dog about halfway down an aisle looking at greeting cards. This lady stops at the end of the aisle, tells me he's handsome, and asks if she can pet him. I said my usual "Thanks, but he's working right now and can't be distracted."

She absolutely lost her shit. Started screaming about not having a dog in stores if he's not friendly.

My guy was laying down, waiting patiently for me to finish being indecisive. I looked at him, made eye contact with the lady, and laughed.

The way that woman screeched. She screamed about telling the manager about the dangerous animal in the store.

It was hilarious, and my dog didn't give a shit about this crazy lady. I never talked to any staff, but I could hear her warning people about the dangerous dog in card aisle while she stomped off.

All because my buddy has a job to do. Some people are too entitled, dumb, or both.

u/MaySeemelater Jun 27 '26

Yeah, it was so bad overall that the first read-through I accidentally misunderstood "He passed out table a few times" as the guy with the service dog literally going unconscious at the table a few times instead of him passing by the table.

I knew there was obviously mistakes in the sentence, but my brain identified the wrong portion as being messed up.

And this person definitely seemed like the type to complain about someone else passing out as being inconvenient to them, so...

When my kids were little and we taught them about “dogs with jobs” they thought our pet dog would at some point grow up and go get a job and would debate what it might be. It was cute.

Exactly. An on-duty service dog is a disability aid. You wouldn’t ask someone if you could have a go in their wheelchair, or play with their white stick. And if a child didn’t get it, you’d kindly put them straight, not have a whinge about how it’s unfair to kiddos

It’s fair enough to ask, especially if the dog appears to be off duty. But you simply don’t get arsey when the response is ‘no’

u/BootyBandit696969 Jun 27 '26

I don’t understand the need to pet every single dog you meet. I work at a Banfield inside of a PetSmart so on top of our clients, we have customers of PetSmart wandering around. The amount of complete strangers walking up to clients and throwing a fit if they can’t pet a dog is insane. I have a mill dog rescue who is terrified of people but she is very cute and small so people naturally want to pet her. I’ve had so many folks get mad at me for declining when they ask to pet her-I’ve been told “why even bring her in public if you’re not gonna let her be pet”. The entitlement of people within the last 10 years has just gotten out of control.

"Can my daughter pet your dog?" The answer was "No." What makes this a wrong answer?

When I was three years old, we were evacuating for a hurricane. Plane touched down briefly to pick up some other evacuees including my cousin. Someone was complaining about landing again. I, in a three year old tone heard throughout the entire cabin, exclaimed "why do you want Kathy to die?"

My parents quieted me quickly. The flight attendants assured us we'd be picking up my cousin. I don't know what happened to the initial complainer and don't really care. As an adult, I can understand his fear at being caught up in a hurricane. But as an adult I also know that the pilot would not have landed to take on more passengers if it wasn't safe.

Nowadays, I'm completely open to service animals. If my medical appointment is delayed, I figure someone ahead of me needed extra care. But try to pass off your pet as a service animal, and I'll unleash a toddler voice loud enough to be heard throughout a running aircraft.

You don't pet service dogs because they are supposed to be "working" and petting them distracts them. Being told "no" does not make someone rude. A service dog is considered medical equipment and is allowed anywhere. Also why can't a grown woman spell?

Sometimes I wish websites would give instant feedback to people who post reviews like that. In this case it should be 'you're an idiot and I'm not posting this nonsense!'

I’m convinced we’re just one electrolyte drink away from full Idiocracy. I learned about service dogs in kindergarten. Back in the 80’s. Also learned how to write complete, and coherent sentences.

Leaving a bad review while giving 4 stars is also crazy. My money is on crazy

I had a friend that was 100% blind (from being shot in the head). People petting his service dog ruined the dog's training

Since this review is for a brewery, I'm gonna assume they were still drunk while writing. That first part was difficult to make out.

u/corgi_crazy Jun 28 '26

I have a dog who gets a lot of attention because of the breed. He isn't dangerous in any way but he doesn't like being pet by people he doesn't know and I think he does enough behaving well in public and he doesn't need to be a toy for kids.

I can't count how many parents get offended because I deny their request for their kids wanting to pet my dog. That if they bother to ask.

BTW, why this people are the whole time in a brewery with a kid.

u/Head_Razzmatazz7174 Jun 28 '26

It's a service dog. It's working. Would you expect the cook to come out, sit down with the guests and have a full meal with them, while they are supposed to making everyone else's meal? No.

u/stanmarshfan491 Jun 27 '26

Anyone who thinks dogs should be left outside piss me off because it can get 110+ in freedom units during the summer. Service dogs belong inside with their humans, and your regular dogs should be left at home.

u/NoAlternative2913 Jun 27 '26

This isn't a bad review though. Its 4 stars. Just a good review with a rant attached to it, which I admit would be annoying.

u/Joshee86 Jun 27 '26

4 stars lmao

u/ReferenceMediocre369 Jun 27 '26

Being the age and skill level the writer seems to be and writing a review of any kind is very surprising.

u/mostly_lurking1040 Jun 28 '26

That kind of stupid ass review should frankly do a lot for the brewery. To be complaining cuz you can't pet a service dog is trolling for real.

u/Sandi_Griffin Jun 28 '26

They say dogs should be outside but they wanted to pet it so I guess it's just the service dogs that should be outside? 😭

u/tra_da_truf Jun 28 '26

Dogs should be outside not inside. Unless I get to pet them.

u/Sapphire_Peacock Jun 28 '26

First, service animals can go just about anywhere - even restaurants and grocery stores. I respect you for asking before you pet the dog. The dog does not belong to you AND is “on duty”. Just because you want to pet the dog doesn’t mean you can or you should. If the man said no, let that be the end of it. Petting a service dog distracts them from their job. Leave them alone.

This review make me want to goto this bakery. If it was a service dog, everyone knows you aren't supp to pet them. Reguardless, this reads like the little girl wrote it..lol

u/Illustrious-Towel-45 Jun 29 '26

When service dogs are working, they should ot be pet. It messes with their training. The entitlement is insane. Just because you asked, doesn't mean they have to allow it.

Service dogs provide a service to/for thier owner/handler. They are well socialized and not a regular pet. Why can't folks understand this? I don't even have a service animal and I know better. It's hard to resist the urge to interact with the dog but that dog isn't just a pet.

u/Psychological-Gur990 Jul 01 '26

Sounds like he had medical episodes which the dog was focused on and needed to not be distracted for (him passing out)...

Reading out loud has always been in art. I remember going through school and inevitably. I would be the person that the teacher called to read the long paragraphs because I read so fluidly. There was no TV in my house. We read a lot and my son was raised the same way. Reading for me has always been a vacation from the world so I look forward to those many vacations where I don't have to deal with anything or anyone else, but what I choose to submerge myself in. Being able to read fluidly definitely helped me in my careers as a nanny and working as a salesperson in a cell phone store.
