I could use ought to if that’s better. :stuck_out_tongue:

I mostly just meant it in the sense that the system works, there’s precedent, and it keeps things cleaner. :grin:

I know. Which is a good application of should. ^^ :slight_smile:

I’m just silly this Friday evening (almost 7 pm here), and I haven’t even started on the alcohol yet. :joy:

I just had this almost viseral reaction to the word should and was like, yeah, I don’t like that word no more. So often used for things that people think other people should do, whether they’re true or not. Unnecessary obligation, judgement and moral grandstanding. And I might have to ban myself from the forum tonight, lol. Who knows how many soap boxes I’ll get up on before the night is over. xD

If it makes you feel any better, I agree with you on those uses of the word should, and wouldn’t use them myself. :grin:

I’ve gotten into my own misadventure on the forum here already this morning, so I should maybe do the same. I have reading to do that would be more productive. :joy:

about should

Can’t help about thinking about Non Violent Communication when I read that :slight_smile:
Marshal Rosenberg often mentions it, how violent “should” is, just found one example out of many: Marshall Rosenberg The Power We Have to Create the World of Our Choosing - YouTube
