Does anyone else have the same problem?

E.G. Ill be reading a sentence which says...

"My grandfather yelled "IS ANYONE HOME?""

And my mind reads it as....

"My grandfather yelled "IMAGE STABILISATON ANYONE HOME?""

And then I realise I've been reading too much of these forums.

Yes, Bill Clinton had the same problem. Worked for him!


"Raw" is not an acronym, abbreviation, nor a proper noun; thus, it should not be in capital letters.

There are countless words in the English language that must be taken in context to get the correct meaning.

I won't say you have too much time on your hands or spen too much time here (because I do) - you just need to do more photography with the time.:lol:

Yup, I do the IS thing too...
I've also said LOL, ROFL, and STFU, but -usually- on purpose for comedic purposes only.

Yup, I have the same problem. So I just skip the word IS, and I still seem to understand the sentenance.
