Today, my girlfriend sexted me for the first time in months. Halfway through reading it I was getting kind of hot. Then I found a spelling mistake and all I could think to do was correct her. She now won't talk to me. FML

You know what "kills" my mood? People who use quotes for any word that is not strictly "literal", or in this case, common usage but just a bit "saucy". Or even to "emphasize" a particular word. That's annoying like "hell". It's the written equivalent of a "funny" uncle winking at you and poking you in the ribs while telling a "knock knock" joke.

I used to work for Harlequin romances during college summer break. During lunch break we used to count the spelling and grammar errors on one page. It was typically between 3-8. Those books are basically **** for illiterate women.
