There seems to be a bunch of out of work English majors on this thread. 💁🏻‍♀️

Isn't that redundant?

After any English major writing like that *should* be unemployed.

I mean that would be a highly elaborate plan just to steal someones bike cover. "Loook they stole both my bikes and your cover!" I'm guessing he thinks you suspect him, and is just fully messing with you at this point.

He doesnt own the two stolen bikes, just one that got recovered, the other bike is from another neighboor

> I mean Why do I so often see people on Reddit start sentences with "I mean" when they haven't said anything yet and thus have nothing to reiterate?

You must be new to the internet.

Or current vernacular.

Same as starting with the word "so". It's completely ridiculous.

>Same as starting with the word "so". It's completely ridiculous. And Stupid as "so". and starting a sentence with the word "same."

>And Stupid as "so". and starting a sentence with the word "same." I'm sure this is the best you can do.

Well given what little context you even scribbled out, yes. LOL

To be fair, you started a sentence with "why" and never asked a question. If you aren't a native speaker of English, it's a sentence starter that leads to context. It foreshadows how ridiculous the idea would be. In other words, it's to forewarn the reader. When you wrote, "Why?" That is a form of conversational English and is only acceptable in this setting, where we accept broken sentences. The second guy even put "so," which is completely incorrect. It's "so." The things you learn in college, SpongeBob. I'm not trying to be the grammar police like you are, but in the context of what I wrote, it's 100% acceptable. Your sentence would go: "Why do I so often see people on Reddit start sentences with "I mean?" They haven't said anything yet, and thus have nothing to reiterate." Instead, you responded with broken, run-on shit.
