Don't do this...

This was the first message I received when I logged into IM this morning:

Not, "Hello," or "Good Morning!"

Do you feel my pain?

  2. Also, starting anything with 'how come' reminds me of a 6 yr old and not an educated grown adult.

  3. After making that statement, I used Google to find out if I had any reason for feeling that way and came across the below:

    "How come?" or "Why?"

    Popular Opinion- Technically it would not necessarily be wrong but many English teachers and professors prefer why because it is more mature-like and understandable without sounding like a child.
