I'm not sure that judging people on poor grammar and spelling feels justified to me, per se.

Fair. I'm not expecting people to expound upon the Oxford comma, but neither do I jump for joy when college-educated folks refuse to use spell check. I guess this belongs more in the less-justified judging list.

*lol* whereas i, non-prescriptivist linguist-at-large, LOVE LOVE LOVE "poor" grammar and spelling -- it's pure data on the state of the idiolect, and grist for many of my mental mills.

doesn't hurt that one of the smartest people i know (the clockwork elf) made an early impression by being non-fluent with the written "two/too/to" homophones when he was in college :)

heh, and now i'm thinking you probably do *not* much judge me by my improper caps ;)
