Those hyphens are not correct; they should be n-dashes or m-dashes, but I forget which one's which and I don't know how to type either of them. :boon:

Spiral, we're aware that you're perfect in every way, you don't have to criticize every post you encounter. ^^

Wwwhhh I pass over most faulty posts and only criticize a very small percentage of such posts I encounter and only when I deem a mistake to be extrordinarily stupid such as Sean or quite interesting as was the case here. You may or may not have noticed that I have quietly passed over every mistake you have made here, such as spelling 'deleted' with an 'a', or combining phrases into single words (e.g., 'a lot' ―> 'alot'). These mistakes didn't interest me enough...

Yeah, like when you used to preach to him how American spellings should never have been implemented into the orphography of English language. Despite this, I can spot an American spelling in this very quote! :P

Sorry =( Can't help my curiousity. But is asking about something the same as discussing it?

iT WAS aCARR'S FAULT for using that dreadful misspelling in the post I was quoting. It unbalanced my mind and fucked up my regionally-correct spelling. I must have been distracted by a passing thought of the word 'citizen' to let that slip under the radar, and now I feel like shit.

~How dare ANYONE use American spelling? It is an abomination, I tell you. An abomination.

This is one of the times when we agree.
And FAB's been around quite a lot, never posting.
