I think you meant "spelt" rather than spent. A but ironic, all things considered.


Now I'm wondering if you meant to use but instead of bit intentionally or not... I'm not great with subtle humor in writing.


You just never know these days. It could be a smartphone keyboard issue.

How much time should a person spend reviewing their comment before hitting reply?

There is a bar of quality each of us expects everyone else to follow. Sometimes we meet expectations, other times we ruffle feathers. How much should you even care?

If we all spew typos, you'll probably care less. If everyone else is carefully reviewing their posts, you might care.

In both cases, it makes no real difference unless the information being transferred is important to you (recipe, design doc, vs shitposts). How much mental friction can you tolerate?

Furthermroe, studeis shoew you can swap the arranrgment of most lettres (ecxept for the frist and last letetrs) in text and you stlil get the piont farily esaily.



Muphry's law, innit

I did, yes. A but ironic indeed.
