There is no excusing you brain. You are a freak of nature and a insult to all man kind. It is plain to see that working with felons has rubbed off on you big time. You should never use the word honest when referring to yourself that in itself is a lie just like when you said you would not reply to me and put me on your ignore list. Lies that is all you know and have ever known.

When criticizing someone else's grammar, spelling, intelligence, and/or education, it is best to write in a manner that suggests you finished at least the 8th grade.
The monstrosity immediately preceding this post does not. |

>Typical joepole.
Factually correct and suggestive of competency? Yes, it is. |

I don't capitalize my name in my posts, so there's no need for someone addressing me to do so.
I'm not normally a grammar Nazi, but a diatribe against someone else's intelligence/education does lose a chunk of its impact when it's delivered via a blob of paragraph break-less text that suggests the author doesn't know what a question mark is or the difference between "your" and "you're." |

Slang and abbreviations are fine. This is informal communication, after all. I, myself, often use too many commas and parentheses in an effort to make posts seem more like spoken conversation.
I always let the occasional its/it's your/you're there/their mix-up slide, but when it's consistently used it's obviously not a typo, it's someone that doesn't know something about the language that they should. The lack of paragraph breaks is the worst part, it makes the whole thing hard to read. |

>but the rules say that names are capitalized.
No, "the rules" (assuming you mean AP Stylebook) say to use the capitalization protocols of the named person's native language and their particular name. My official name here is "joepole" so it is proper to use it without capitalization. I don't always follow the APSb, though. For instance, I use the comma between the penultimate item and the conjunction in a list while the APSb says not to. I just like it better and it's generally recognized as correct usage. APSb: Red, orange and yellow. joepole: Red, orange, and yellow. |

Are you a teacher? I don't care anything about english. The point I was making to Brain is when you talk about someone's fat it is usually better to use " for inches instead of that ' which means feet. Whoever heard of a 60' butt. If I am wrong then you need help. God help Brain if he had to build a house.

And my point was that your "you're so stupid for screwing up something so simple" point is lost when it's delivered in a barely-readable/poorly-formatted post riddled with grammatical and logical errors.
