I think

I've discovered a quick little trick that automatically makes my writing better.

Any time I catch myself writing the words "I think", I just delete them. I learned this trick in high school, when we were instructed to never write "I think", especially in an argumentative essay. You don't write it because it's implicit that this is what you think.

Nothing profound here. Just a handy little rule of thumb.

If that's the conclusion you've come to, then this post is riddled with errors even by your own standards.
