You know up until today I’ve never really cared for the spelling Nazis on this board.

Every time you guys check in with correction here, correction there; I just want to strangle your metaphorical neck.

Then I clicked on the link in [THIS](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?t=415200) thread and proceeded to read the comments that went along with it.

JEEZUS!! I thought my head was going to explode!! I felt like I was reading something that was pecked out on a keyboard by a blindfolded chicken.

I couldn’t help thinking to myself how grateful I am that The SDMB doesn’t flow like that.

I guess that’s thanks to all you spelling/grammar Nazis that are constantly keeping us on our toes!!

So THANKS guys.

You’re welcome. I do try to keep myself in check, but sometimes the errors are just too egregious.
