So what is the consensus?
Are "we" going to stop nit-picking about the odd typo that slips into posts maintaining the option for humourous effect?

I did say that everyone makes mistakes. I did say that there were probably errors in my post. Practically everyone thereafter completely ignored my point, in the rush to find errors in my post.
My point is not that there is anyone, least of all me, who never makes a mistake; and especially not that no-one should ever make a mistake. My point was that mistakes are mistakes and should be seen as such, not simply as some sort of natural variation in linguistic ability; and that people should in general try not to make mistakes, rather than condemn those who happen to notice them.Comment
