    I'm sorry, but I fail to see the connection between severe hypothyroidism and poor grammar.

    Cap'n Flash – great illustration. I liked that a lot.

    All else – while we're getting these little annoyances off our chests, how about (and it's not limited to this forum alone) remaining aware of the difference between 'lose' and 'loose'?

    The former can be what one does with one's virginity.

    The latter is how one might become after experiencing the former – depending on where and with whom!

    What greats with me is people who open a sentence with a [ but feel no need to close again at the end of the sentense 😀

    since these distinctions are meaningless in spoken language I consider them to be spurious.

    About what I'd expect. Punctuation in speech is implied by context and natural pauses. Punctuation and clear correct spelling in written English aids comprehension, particularly where confusion can occur due to the different meanings of words with similar spellings. If confusion is caused by a reader not being clear on the point you are trying to make, then you might as well not try making the point at all.
