Dear Dish on Grammar Errors
Dear Dish:
I'm sure you encounter a lot of loveable snicklefritzes in your advice-giving adventures. Do you ever edit your writers' comments for grammar and content? Do you ever cast a questionable eye when you correct a comma, and say, "Oh, those silly raggamuffins....when will society learn?"
Sincerely,
Someone who cheers when they get a refund on their tax return even though they know they shouldn't.
Dear Silly Ragamuffin (with one "g" only):
Dish doesn’t edit content but admits that she will, upon occasion, edit grammar and spelling. She’s a language professional. She really can’t help herself. Dish would also like to point out that she has been on training this week and is now officially a certified information mapper. Is there no end to the nerdiness one can achieve?
As for tax refunds, Dish was very clearly told by her tax man (after screaming out "Whoo hoo! Free money!" in his office upon finding out that she would be receiving a refund) that tax refunds are not, in fact, free money but just your own money being returned to you by the government (thus the use of the term refund). Dish doesn’t care. She still cheers.
Yours in solidarity,
Dish
