Double spaces in text
Please call me if you encounter these issues
Hate to be that guy again, but you forgot the period at the end of your sentence.
Aaaaand that's a Level 3 misdemeanor for attempting to correct an officer of the law.
Internal affairs will be in contact with you shortly.
We've investigated ourselves and found no wrongdoing
Are you sure that's your jurisdiction? Isn't that typography or something?
I hate it when people put a space before periods and commas , yet it’s something I often notice with older people .
There's a reasonable explanation for that one, namely: the French.
as a quebequer, i avoid putting the space in french too, just looks wrong.
I'm guilty of making that typo but sometimes mobile keyboard adds extra spaces
I'm fine with it on social media, but on websites, articles, research papers etc I see it as a lack of quality control. It's very easy to fix too, just hit ctrl+F and type space twice to find any.
