This is something I can get behind.

...spell correctly in LJ comes back with a vengeance. On January 3, 2007, join the growing throng of grammar guardians and spelling supporters to show that you have survived the public school system. On the remaining 364 days of the year, feel free to type however you wish in your journal, but for this one day, please show the world that you really are literate. Heck, there is even a spell check button to utilize before you post.

Take a moment to let all of your LJ friends know about January 3. Who knows? Someday, you may be looking for a new job and the prospective employer will review your journal to check your attention to detail. It could happen. Do your part to make your journal a safer place to live, work, and shop.

Wow there are things wrong with that. Specifically only participate if you went to public school? Also? For "grammar guardians" they sure managed to say "in LJ" when the proper use has been "on LJ" for years.

This post earns the Masked Grammarian Seal of Approval (but with slight demerit for the confusing opening sentence and incorrect idiom, as previously mentioned by [livejournal.com profile] murnkay).

the only problem is that in addition to the spelling, there's the grammar. Oi...getting then and than mixed up just makes me pucker up for some reason. Then there's also the problem of not being able to spellcheck comments.

On a side note. You were in a dream I had a couple nights ago. As much as I enjoyed that part of the dream, you gotta cut that out ;)

All I did was open the door. You chose to come in :P

But you do give the best hugs even in dreamland.
