Blarg! Viva le resistance! I'm not so bad as I used t'be. You only see more of my written word these days than you ever did. Trust me, I've impoved imensley even since 9th grade. -nods-
To risk sounding indignantly defensive, I don't take French and I knew there were two m's. LJ just doesn't let you edit comments, and you can't expect me to catch everything. Still, you succeed in making me look quite foolish. It was actually rather amusing. ^_^;;
Sweetie, I love you - and I misspell things, too. Apparently, I've been misspelling "puerile" as "peurile" for the past long while...I don't mean to be so picky, anyway...it's a bad habit I learned from my mother, who would rake me over the coals for misspelling a word by one letter. ::points to the "puerile" example above:: She caught me on that one over Spring Break.
LOL SEE? I did sound indignantly defensive, didn't I? That wasn't intended (I was only being half-facecious.)
My little brother, Josh, is a brain. He's 85% Cerebral Cortex. The boy is just a box full of neurons. He's become a very cool box of neurons as he's grown, but he's still a brain. For the longest time, even before I met you, I had my spelling critiqued by my little brother. Trust me, if that didn't get on my nerves, you won't.
All being said and done, I appreciate your corrections. I know I can't spell very well at all, and though I have my reasons for why it's so, that doesn't make it any less of a fault. If I miss something, I'm grateful when another corrects me. As Becky may testify to, I cxompulsively correct my typos on AIM, even when the point is expressed and it's obviously just a typo, anyways. I don't mind the corrections, I appreciate them.
LOL And while I don't even know what 'puerile' means, let alone how to spell it, I assure you that no one in the world would give it a second though -- aside from you or your mother, of course. I know you aren't any more perfect than me (who could be? ^_~ ). After all, you do seem to have a nasty habit of putting punctuation outside of quotation marks... But we all have our stumbling blocks. -Grins-
No, Becky, only some of them, and even they can be decent humans sometimes, given the opportunity. I'd much prefer to confront them and try to make some sense of their ass-ness before I give up on them. I think there have been quite few who I've ever given up on.
