"No logic. Just an assessment! Now... Here is the controversial part... You see those pics on people's profiles where the houses are filthy??? Go back and grammar check... There is a correlation. I am not saying that dyslexics are inherently dirty. But I certainly think there are lots of people who are too lazy to tidy their house and equally too lazy to prof read their profile. Controversial... I know... I can see the all the red lights going off right now on that dating show.. Let the grammar nazi see the block button! " oh dear would that be proof read their profile | |||

You would assume we are sexually incompatible because of my fancy punctuation/English!!
Many people forget that this site is also used by non-english speakers.
I put that I am French on my profile not to be fancy but so people can bother reading between the lines of my profile, just in case I don't make sense
I have met guys that were not English speakers on here and did not mention it on their profiles. And may be they should as it seems it is a disadvantage as people forget as I said that not everyone has English as a mother tongue.

"I don't know a) what the hell im doing in the Scotland forum and b) why I'm going to say this It's perfectly permissible to put commas before "and" and "but"; it's a complete fallacy that you can't. There are a few different uses of commas and one is the joining comma. If you have two complete sentences, the full stop can be replaced by a comma and a joining word (conjunction). "And" and "but" are two such words. For example: "He got to the train station at the right time. The train had already left for the next stop." becomes: "He got to the train station at the right time, but the train had already left for the next stop." I'm sorry, I'm so sorry. I hate myself for this. Once you start down the road of spelling/ punctuation/grammar geekery, it's impossible to escape. I genuinely worked with a guy who once went into a pizza restaurant to politely tell them they'd used an apostrophe wrong on the sign outside! In our defence, it was our profession to get it right. In the same way a carpenter wanted to make a perfectly crafted cabinet, we were tasked with helping students create perfectly crafted sentences. I'm not a nazi, honest .

"I deserve it, to be fair. I try hard to let it go, I really do. It's a mystifying interest to have, much like Morris Dancing. Once you start getting into it, it there's no going back though, and it becomes weirdly fascinating! I'm really fun at parties btw | |||
