another one slams in your face.

I saw this ages ago... I cant find the original "author"... so I cant give proper credit, but this is something that has really stayed in the front of my mind.

Online communication is taking over, from emails to txt messages. I for one have been misunderstood, (as I assume most ppl have) because the recipient can not see your body language, or facial expression, nor hear your tone, or what words you are stressing.

It can lead to some serious confusing... case in point.
All 7 of these sentences have the exact same 7 words, yet by stressing a different word the meaning changes.  Its no wonder ppl have difficulties understanding what someone else it trying to convey.

1. I Didn’t Say You Stole My Money.
2. I Didn’t Say You Stole My Money.
3. I Didn’t Say You Stole My Money.
4. I Didn’t Say You Stole My Money.
5. I Didn’t Say You Stole My Money.
6. I Didn’t Say You Stole My Money.
7. I Didn’t Say You Stole My Money.
