I'm pretty judgmental about grammar and spelling in general and have to fight the urge not to correct some people (like professors when they're writing on the board in class) but my grammar and spelling isn't perfect by any means so I try not to let it influence me too much.

Sorry if that wasn't as deep as religion and race and such
That's a good one too. I used to be a recruiter and you'd be amazed at what people will put on their resumes. You get 1-2 pages to promote yourself and you choose crap? Awesome. I also have an aunt who believes that all plural words end in apostrophe-s. Thank's, your's, cookie's, anything goes. Is it THAT hard to learn possessive and plural rules? Or basic spelling? I suppose I interpret that as either not detail-oriented or not caring.
