You forgot fantasists.

Yep, this site has it's fair share of IT nerds (sorry, technicians) who are clearly on the spectrum, it's understandable, they can't talk to girls (or even sit in the same room without getting all weird) so get their kicks lying about achievements and highlighting spelling and grammar mistakes on the internet.

You threw in an extra apostrophe for good measure too. But I'm far too polite to point out such a thing.

Thought you were going to say that it should be I, not i.

I do it for fun and because it clearly annoys those that can't spell or use punctuation.

If you're going to write like a six year old, expect to get treated like one.

Nope. I'm not fussed about typos. Fat fingers FTW.
