Holy crap. That's all I can about the state of education in America.
I'm in school full time right now, and as part of my degree I have to take Writing 121 again. (20 years after the last time I took it). I'm no English major by any stretch mind you, but I know my way around the P's and Q's. We're doing peer edits in my writing class this morning. The way this one fellow hacked his way through his essay, it looks less like he's using the English language, and more like he's attacking it like it's his mortal enemy!
WTH people? Did EVERYONE sleep through their high school writing and English classes? Did you never learn that there are words that that sound the same but are spelled differently? Did you not even learn to put a space after the period??
GAAAAHHHH!
