I've noticed a strange modern trend in texts and forum posts where people do this thing that just makes no sense to me.
They will state something but omit the 1st person narrative personal pronoun...
Example:
instead of saying "I went to the store today." They will say "went to the store today."
Lots of people do it; I was doing it for awhile too but I caught myself. Why? How much time are you saving by omitting the word "I"?
Or it's almost like you are dying in a spaghetti western or old movie and you can't form a full sentence so you just abbreviate for dramatic effect. Or really it's like old fashioned telegraph messages.
It's silly.
