Because I have a fighting chance of making it happen, and because no one else has come remotely close to creating anything satisfactory, I permit myself to keep droning on. I’m acutely aware that I’ve been droning on about this for years but have gotten nowhere. Used to indicate that the flipper is ill-equipped to continue rationally, has lost his/her cool, and will no linger sit at, or come to, said table. I want to offer a choice to those who work with contracts: keep wasting time and money and exposing yourself to risk and suboptimal outcomes by doing the copy-and-paste thing, or do better by embracing the new and using automated templates infused with real expertise. Table-flipping Event characterized by a melodramatic gesture at the explosive end of extreme frustration, anger or resignation in which a hothead literally flips a table. But beyond that, I don’t expect to convert the masses by haranguing them from a soap box. I aim to offer reliable guidance to my readers.
The odds are remote that you’d see a tweet, smack your forehead, and say, How can I have been so blind! If you’re anything other than a novice and you’re not aware that using all capitals for body text in contracts is a bad idea, it’s because you’re a committed rider of the copy-and-paste train. Improving contracts requires applying a comprehensive set of guidelines-yeah, MSCD‘s guidelines-rather than banging on about a grab-bag of obvious stuff.Īnd I’m not sure who the intended audience is. For one thing, it’s redolent of a scattershot “tips and tricks” approach to contract usages. But I save that for topics where I have something unique to offer and the transactional establishment is fully invested in bad takes.īy contrast, I’m not inclined to wade in every time someone makes what should by now be an obvious critique of a traditional contract usage. For example, a search for efforts on my blog pulls up over 200 posts. I’m reconciled to saying the same thing over and over again. Such venting gets plenty of engagement, but generally I don’t join in. On social media, it’s easy enough to find people discussing basic examples of suboptimal contract usages, such as exuberant use of all capitals.
