Anyone else enjoy making up literary bo**ocks to impress their lads? I can see my lad then using the sentences I write to try and impress people, re-education is good, it could save a real victim. We should have a competition to see who can write in the most ridiculously overly formalised way without the lad catching on.

Lasted for 11 months. The style was fairly easy to put into practice (just don't use "I/me/my/etc" or "you/your/yours/etc" and use "one/one's" instead and so on) but difficult to remember to do at all times.
