Microsoft Word now showing 2 spaces after a period as an error.

This is complete fucking bullshit! I shall not comply!!!

#TwoSpaces
 
Are they also showing your as proper use for you're?
 
Good because I was taught the same as you. I believe that colons also had a double space after. Semi-colons only one.

Compare that to the absolutely atrocious grammar we see here on a daily basis.

Ditto. Colons 2 spaces...semi-colons just one.
 
My pet peeve is people who think that you make a word plural by putting an apostrophe and an s at the end of it. Or just putting a random apostrophe in front of the s at the end of a word for no reason.
 
Long as they don’t touch the Oxford comma.

First they give into the pressure to eliminate the proper spacing after a period and after that its the rewriting of the rules that lead us down the slippery slope to chaos and ultimately the destruction of the western world.

Somebody really should do something about that.

If we stand together this madness can be defeated.
