I'm a snob. You know it, I know it, we all know it. I want - no, I need - good grammar. I need proper punctuation. If you send me a document for reference, or just reading randomly, I will first spend ten minutes creating my personal version, with corrected grammar and punctuation in it. Only then will I proceed to read it.
I need spaces after full stops and commas, not before. I do not like double spaces. And you get extra points if you justify the document.
Thank you.

that's not snobbery, that narcissism!
I absolutely understand what you're talking about. Heartfelt empathy.
I second the motion! Wholeheartedly!
I do that too... and I don't think it's narcissism. Grammar is as important as the content.
Your word verification thing just asked me for a y with umlauts, by the way.
@ziggy: as if you're not the same! :P
@fintan: I'm told you're still in Washington?!
I'm nowhere near Washington... but don't worry, my location should change back to Aberdeen soon. (hopefully)
my god ra! HOW did u ever read anything i have written? lol
By closing my eyes tightly, and repeating to myself, I love this girl I love this girl I love this girl. Only then do I proceed.
Of course, if it's a Word doc, I just edit it first. :P
