to see typos, misspelled words, and grammatical errors when people post on here? I am a former editor, so guess my opinion...lol


My attitude is if you're going to write something for the purpose of communicating, to be understood, you might as well do it right or not waste your (and my) time.

Nothing rankles like a pseudo-intellectual trying to say something "profound," and every other word is misspelled. How am I supposed to take someone seriously, when what they write looks like it was cobbled together by a dyslexic second grader?

i don't care normally. in fact i haven't made a big deal of using caps tonight... although i fear my mom would probably slap me silly (she's an english teacher)

but when someone wishes to pontificate and show their superior intelligence and spells weird 'wierd' or misuses they're and their, i get irritated. and then i change into a fresh pair of socks. that usually makes it better.
