    :mad: It really annoys me when people act as if spelling, grammar, etc. are the most important thing on this site. People that are using MFP are struggling every day to get a little healthier... not prove how smart they are or are not. WHY on Earth would anyone EVER feel the need to pick on other people???? Maybe the person posting never made it through high school or even grammar school... maybe they are from a different country? Should that keep them from posting for fear of being ridiculed by people like THIS??? :explode:

    1. This is in chit-chat, fun, and games.
    2. I have a 4 year college degree.
    3. I spend all day every day grading high school papers. You are assuming I'm even talking about MFP. I haven't targeted anyone. YOU are the one attacking people.
    4. Any way that you communicate whether in speech or by written word is going to show your intelligence. I am not saying people should never make mistakes, but if you are going to try to explain the complexities of macros and different nutrients and the science behind weight loss, I am not going to listen to you if your spelling and grammar sucks. Sorry... Also...by the way, my brother in law is from another country (that does not speak English as a primary language) and he has better English grammar than I do.

    You chose to single me out, why? Because I used emoticons and my post stood out better to you? There are MANY who think that "picking on people" and that is WHAT THIS IS is not right... But I can be your poster child for thinking that this is just plain rude if you wish me to be. :laugh: I'm proud that I am not on the same page as you on this.

    Where I come from it is not fun and games to act as though you are superior to others... :blushing:

    You might want to keep in mind, that this is an international forum and some people are not native in english (saying that, I have come across americans and brits that don't seem to be native in their own tongue either...) - Just sayin'

    I have a friend of FB that spells the word "and" like "&nd" every single time she writes it. It's so annoying....

    I also hate when people spell "this" like "dis" and "that" like "dat"

    I don't like it, but I accept that not everyone has had the same level of education and lots of people don't have English as their first language. I'd rather everyone felt comfortable to post a question or share their thoughts, even if their spelling and grammar aren't perfect.

    Pedantry ftw! I am trying to be less militant in my grammar/spelling appreciation but sometimes you see a particularly flagrant case of apostrophe abuse and you just can't help but bust out the permanent marker and get to correcting those "greengrocer's".
