Yesterday I was reading something I had written about six months ago and just sitting here staring at it I could pick out innumerous spelling errors and grammatical faux pas--I nearly
puked
at the poor sentence structure that pervaded it throughout. It was then that I realized how much you shit-talking
spelling Nazis
have forced me to improve my writing skills and expand my vocabulary. Due to the fact that
I am an obsessive/compulsive wacko
, only something such as
e2
could capture
my flickering, crackbaby-esque attention
long enough to force good grammatical habits on me and make me mind my
horrid spelling
.
If schools had something of this nature I doubt
illiteracy
would be any sort of problem. Now we just have to find a way to keep the 3rd graders out of
dannye
's
militant, right-wing propaganda
(which is making a whole lot more sense to me, the older I get) and
katyana
's sex nodes and we may well have the
educational system
of the future!
