This is just a tiny thing that is really starting to make me roll my eyes a lot. The customers_suck community is NOT the grammar_nazis community. Why is it these days that every time there's a badly written post, nobody responds to the content, they just jump all over the grammar? I'm a grammar nazi myself, I get bugged by abuses of you're/your and this one gal's use of "paragraph's" made me wince too, but she was venting about work not writing a graded essay! And yet of all the comments to her post, 90% were about how it was one large block of text with bad grammar. That's just silly! If you hate big blocks of text, just use the scroll bar and don't read it, people.

I'd post this to the community in question, but it would be off topic, and I'd get jumped all over.

I suspect that it has to do with the fact that most of the people posting are in jobs where they have to deal with dumb customers, ie crap jobs. That means, they have no control over that large aspect of their lives, which makes them more likely to jump all over small things they think they can control.
