When to Use Underlined Text

Underlining text is a great way to add emphasis, but not when you're trying to be subtle.

Use underlining for:

• When you want to underline the absurdity of a situation
• When you're tired of using italics
• When you really need to make a point

But don't use underlining for:

• When you're trying to be ironic (it's overused)
• When you're afraid of bold font
