I hate Word. Particularly the words "Passive Voice (consider revising)". What's wrong with the passive? It's not like it outlaws other abnormal forms, even - optatives, subjunctives, perfect passive participles, nominative absolutes, gerunds/gerundives (and no, I'm not sure which is which either...). Why specifically the passive?
