God, people are dumb. A lot of the retards here can barely even spell their own name. Seriously, do a lot of people graduate from highschool never having been told to read a book? Even a picture book with three words per page?

That's kind of like saying that a person has to be physically perfect to have the right to judge another's appearance, and if that was the case, where would the fun be? :)

I think you're missing the point of this thread. Basically these are simple mistakes that people do over and over again and really wouldn't take much time or effort to correct.

Much like you putting a comma after the word "basically"?

I loved this combination of sentences as a small child:

I think you're missing the point, which is that the people who regularly make those mistakes are lazy and don't care.

Personally, I like the smug moral superiority of being a better typist/editor.
