Then you should be doubly embarrassed by the way you choose to communicate.Taken directly from the University of Hartford's web page, it states:
All English majors develop an understanding of literature, an awareness of the relationship between literature and culture, [b]and a mastery of both the expressive skills and the critical reading skills necessary for success in any career.
Do your school proud and try to better use the skills that they are trying to instill in you.
As an english/writing major have they taught you the concepts of humour and sarcasm? If you are such a literal thinker I pity you in your chosen profession.
Actually I am not sad at all (except for the fact that I am just getting over the flu) and yes I have a life. Ironically enough, I write for a living.
Why would that make me cry? In order to be humorous or caustic you have to build a scenario where how I feel about your spelling on a forum would sadden me. Quite the opposite. It entertains me.
Once again, if you were as smart as you wished you were, then you would not make a general statement such as that. By checking out my posting history you will see that I contribute much more to KMC then as the resident grammar nazi. You just make it too easy.
Sorry, no OCD here. However, I question your mental state when I see the manner in which you behave in these forums. Your proclivity to insult people, use profanity and argue, and then your sheepish behaviour afterwards as you apologize in PM's (I can sight our last run in on March 17 as evidence if you wish) suggests that you are not tightly wound.
And you are entitled to that opinion. Just remember, opinions are like a-s-s-h-o-l-e-s, everyone's got one and most of them stink. ( I assume that you misspelled "ass whole" incorrectly on purpose? whatever the case, it was funny)
Or you could have said,"[i] You see, this only strengthens my belief that you are compelled to make fun of other's spelling in order to reaffirm some sense of selfsuperiority.
I'm sorry, but as a writing major I though you could use the help.
First off save your energy and hold back with the pity. Second, use that saved energy to try and form a cohesive thought.
You take things WAYYY TOOO personally. We all make typos (you of course more than most, plus your grammar is for sh*t) but that is not my beef.
I responded to your post because I found it ironically humorous that a person would try and defend their intelligence and then not have the common sense to at least make sure that that brief post looked remotely intelligent itself.
You have called many people harsh and profane names, made generalized (if not completely fabricated) accusations and taken yourself a little too seriously. I just commented on what you wrote.
If your behaviour continues at it's current rate, I foresee a banning in your immediate future.
I suggest you sit back, relax, and stop with the [/B]
