What the use of the I-pronoun says about you

Frequent “I” users subconsciously believe they are subordinate to the person to whom they are talking (or writing).

Pronouns tell us what people are paying attention to, where someone’s internal focus is pointing. Often, people using “I” are being self-reflective. But they may also be self-conscious or insecure, in physical or emotional pain, or simply trying to please.

The high-status person is looking out at the world and the low-status person is looking at himself.

Other than the high-powered and highly confident, who avoids using “I”? People who are hiding the truth. Avoiding the first-person pronoun is distancing. Dr. Pennebaker found people who use the pronoun “I” more often are more honest communicators, more likely to be telling the truth.

How often should you use “I”?

More—to sound humble (and like a team player)? Or less—to come across as more assured and authoritative? Dr. Pennebaker says the answer is “mostly more.”

From Scientific American:

Depression and suicide risk: Public figures and published poets use more first-person singular pronouns when they are depressed or suicidal, possibly indicating excessive self-absorption and social isolation.

Reaction to trauma: In the days and weeks after a cultural upheaval, people use “I” less and “we” more, suggesting a social bonding effect.

The reason *we* is such a fun word is that half of the time it is used as a way to bring the speaker closer to others and the other half of the time to deflect responsibility away from the speaker.

[now-theres-a-spoiler-for-you]

I’ve come seeking expressions of interest for a project that a few Kinglets and I have developed the concept for in the past few days.

As this year marks our lovely queen’s 60th birthday, we wanted to do a little something to celebrate her.

Knowing how she loves her fans and also values creativity, we thought that a scrapbook would be the best way to do so and are now looking for submissions of letters of appreciation, art which features Alex herself or a character she portrays, and photos of yourself with Alex if you have them. We’d also love it if you could include a picture of yourself to add with your letter (if you’re comfortable with that) so Alex can put a face to the name.

If the idea of any of those seems daunting, a quick Happy Birthday message would also be lovely to add.

If you’d like to take part, please take a moment to register your interest on this poll so that we know how large the book will need to be to accommodate content:

We need these things to be submitted ASAP so the scrapbook can be assembled as it will be presented to her at her next convention appearance (17th-19th March)

If you’d like something to be included, they can be sent to [email protected] by the 12th of March

27 May 1966

During a car ride, Bob Dylan gives John Lennon a history lesson, pointing out "the mighty Thames. That’s what held Hitler back, the mighty Thames."

It doesn't improve much from there.
