Bad Spellers of America - Unite!!!

I am known as Grammar Nazi. I have actually been removed from a "30 something" chat group on another site because of my wee issue with incorrect spellings and posts that are so badly written one can not read them.

Further, I think those who write in public forums using "text speak" should have their finger nails pulled out one at a time!

I don't see to much of that, but I do see run on paragraphs with absolutely no breaks - I'm talking 50, 75, 100 lines that go on and on and on - drives me crazy. Whitespace, people, we need whitespace!!

I thought it was
"Bad Spellers of the World, Untie!"

This thread excites me.

I'm ecstatic that I have spell checker! Even though my spelling is not that bad, there are still some words that I just cannot seem to conquer

But as far as punctuation... well, I've been a little free-style with that

I get frustrated with hacker speech/type..... my cousin only knows this and to read her letters or see her schoolwork... well, it makes me want to CRY!
