We must prove that we are over-educated by not only writing a well as we possibly can but also pointing out other people's trivial errors.

Also, don't never use double-negatives.

You should not use multiple question marks.

LMAO! Now that's funny!! Good one SI.

[edit] I was referring to the original post. My apologies for the lack of clarity.

You should not use multiple question marks.

Choose whether to be pedantic or not such that your tone is consistent. Thus, either use the contraction 'shouldn't' or refer to "question marks" as "marks of interrogation."

ooohhh but southern
you know it is SO hard to not stop and point out peoples odd misuses of words that they have obviously only heard and never read.

it is only my annoyance at other peoples correction of spelling errors and punctuation that keeps me from pointing them out

i dont think that anyone here will ever be taken for being over educated

State your point/s clearly and directly in the future.

But, how could I point out your punctuation errors if you refuse to use punctuation?

Could you do me a little favor, please?
Could you look at the keyboard (that's the peice of plastic with buttons all over it) and find the "Shift" key. It is generally below the "Caps Lock" and is beside the "Z" key.
Now, when you start a sentence, hold down the "Shift" key, while pushing the key for the first letter of the sentence.
Could you do that one, little thing for me? Please?

I'd settle for a period.

My life is meaningless and empty now. I am awash in a sea of self-loathing and deactivated spell checkers. Left to float in the void that is internet typoes, never again to feel the warm comforting breath of my own pretentious claims to perfection.
WHY ARROGANCE!?! Why have you abandoned me to this, this, this lowly and deprived state? Why am I left to be ground into the dirt by a man whose name implies a connection to Texas? What have I done to deserve this mortal wound? Rending soul as surely as the sword doth flesh.
WHY!?! WHY!?! WHY!?! WHY!?! WHY!?!

Ooh, look!
Something shiny . . .
Er, what was I saying?

Perchance you should endevour to retain the services of a gastroenterologist.
It might simply be the case that you suffer from aerophagia. However, lactase deficiency, tropical sprue, or pancreatic insufficiency could also be indicated by the symptoms you decribe.

wow, hey dai! still in osaka??

I dare to conclude that you all are pathetic and have nothing better to do than wasting your time in a useless contest. I approve this contest and gladly join in the fun.
