The guy that owns this blog wants to post tonight about people who write in the 3rd person. Why in the hell do people do this? Is it supposed to sound more professional? It's like if you write in the 3rd person I'm supposed to believe or agree with what you write?
Bull. Writing about yourself in the 3rd person only makes seem a little self centered and unbelievable. Just say it like it is. Writing in the 3rd person won't make me believe you.

A person very much resembling Robert says that they are underachieving and need to take it to another level:
ReplyDelete"Some languages do not contrast voices, but similar-looking persons. For example, Baltic-Finnic languages such as Finnish and Estonian have a "passive", which is conceptually more of a never-mentioned "fourth person" than variation of subjectivity or objectivity. For example, translating the sentence "The house was blown down" as Talo puhallettiin maahan would give the idea that some unmentioned person is blowing the house down by the force of his breath. Also, transitivity may be used, e.g. the fourth-person Ongelma ratkaistiin (transitive) means "Someone solved the problem", while the fourth-person Ongelma ratkesi (intransitive anticausative) means "The problem was solved"."
