I'm pretty sure it's a reference to people saying "I'd do this, but..." Regardless, my brain always becomes a little bit agitated when I see something I know is grammatically incorrect. My mouth and my fingers aren't grammar nazis but my brain is a jerk.M Zee wrote: ↑03 Nov 2018, 10:24 I will be honest, the weird grammatical "But's" in the title was originally off-putting to me. I am still not sure if it's meant to be intentional or some reference to the book (as I have yet to read it, I don't know?). But to someone browsing titles, I am not really sure it would appeal.

I believe the word "but" has deprived so many people the successes they would have easily achieved.
I like the title, and I believe the content has really done justice to the title too.
