i know i'm new here and i don't mean to offend anyone but i wish to make a comment about spelling and grammar. i've noticed that some people here tend to not pay attention to rules of the english grammar. i admit that i don't use capital letters, but you will find that my grammar, spelling, and punctuation is usually pretty good. i am only writing this post because i just got finished reading a thread of posts and i found it extremely hard to follow with all the grammatical and spelling errors. please don't take offense to this. the last thing i want is a fight between myself and all or any of you. i just thought i should point that out so the threads would be easier to follow.
thank you for your time
sincerely

I can't terrorize. I see terror in your eyes. As we go up we go down. I can't socialize . I'll be institutionalized. And see the truth, it's just a lie. And see the truth, it's just a lie. I speak in monition. Leave my fuckin life alone. As we go up we go down. As we go up we go down.

I know I no talk good but I like me speaking shit like I does. Work is of two kinds: first, altering the position of matter at or near the earth's surface relatively to other such matter; second, telling other people to do so.

myddnyht | I agree with you. Typos are totally acceptable, but there is a point at which post become unreadable. It isn't that hard to read your post before you hit SEND....so, I guess I agree with you. If you are trying to make a point, or act really cool, innit? then I can understand the use of little or no grammar, but at least try....but that's just my opinion. Aw, fuck it, who wants pie?

Errors in your post:
Two missing commas in first sentence: one between "here" and "and", and one between "anyone" and "but."
"...Rules of the english grammar" is incorrect; it should be, "the rules of english grammar."
Comma should be between "posts" and "and" in the fourth sentence.
The period at the end of sentence five should be a semi-colon, if you wish to maintain your line of thought.
I'd put dashes on either side of "or any" in the sixth sentence. Without them, the sentence is too awkward.
Missing comma between "out" and "so" in the last sentence.
Missing period at the end of "thank you for your time."
Missing comma after "sincerely."

On this note, it's spelled "Midnight". When people talk of the freedom of writing, speaking or thinking I cannot choose but laugh. No such thing ever existed. No such thing now exists; but I hope it will exist. But it must be hundreds of years after you and I shall write and speak no more.

Reality is a condition brought on by a lack of alcohol. "...Lord, bring on the night. Wrap it all around me. Let it hold me tight.
