Our discussion previously got, somewhat loud, but never did I see you as being a jerk. I'm sure the way I write things can sometimes come of as me being self riteous (to use someone elses terminology) but for the most part I type exactly how I would say something. Thus with lack of tone and facial expressions it can get confusing.
Personally I don't find ones lack of grammar annoying. In fact it makes them more human in my eyes. I've said before, I hold high respect for someone who has mastered the English language, but the fact is, we don't really talk like that.

BTW: Ostrasizer *can* be a word if you want it to be, do a definition search for NEOLOGISM and see for yourself.
it's nice to know there are some thick skinned folks around, and self righteous wasn't an accurate label to put on you... as i said last night, i mistook your original tone.
as for me being a jerk, i don't mind the label. anyone who has the balls to speak their mind will be called a jerk or "insensitive" by those with some tact.
