hereyesruponyou -> Grammar, spelling and a little effort... (9/10/2008 6:29:21 PM)

Is it too much to ask that someone who wants me to take them seriously put forth the effort to send a coherent message? It's not like as soon as your fingers hit the keys the words are transmitted, especially in mail. Geesh, don;t hit send until you read it over. First impressions are important. I would rather have a brief, simple personal message than a long tiresome diatribe that just makes me wonder what the heck you're thinking...

*giggle*  Ya know... this is why I always get all paranoid when I post from work.  No spell checker there.  But then, I don't go around blasting others for typos.  Therefore, very few make fun of mine.

I never use a spell check, rarely use my online dictionary. I figure most of what i put is spelt correctly and if not tough. I would usually not pick up on someone elses grammar, spelling but the op is just asking for it. [:D]

Or maybe you like it when mod11 spanks you, and you just don't want to admit it.  Come on, like anyone around HERE is going to make fun of you for that? [;)]

Meh, it's only like the third one this week on the same topic.  I'm thinking though, that it's a record low number.  Normally we're at about six or seven by Wednesday evening.




NihilusZero -> RE: Grammar, spelling and a little effort... (9/10/2008 7:33:20 PM)

Despite the typo (which, in reality, is neither a grammar or spelling error), the concept of wishing for coherence still makes a valid point. To that point, however...no amount of rereading before hitting the send button (unless accompanied by an English textbook) will really change the writer's grasp (or lack thereof) of the language.

Like the people who are too lazy to put punctuation at the end of their sentences? [8D]
