Dear Editor,
I think it's terribly ironic that your title is Editor, when your article is in dire need of editing. Have you ever heard of spellcheck? That was a rhetorical question, because judging by your newspaper article, you haven't. Your lack of proper punctuation use, your constant misspelling of words, and your sentence fragments nauseate me. You are definitely not "one of the smartest most respectable person in the school." Have you ever even taken an English class? I think a lack of knowledge of English grammar is more embarrassing to the school than confidently dressed girls. And I'll wear spandex if I want to.
PS. Using multiple exclamation points seriously undermines your intelligence. Especially in a newspaper article!!!

I had a professor once who argued that one "!" was too many. Let the language work for you. That bit of advice has never done me wrong. He was talking about formal writing though (newspapers, analytical essays, publishable material, etc). There are no rules for blogging!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Oh my! I love you. Someone asked me to read that article the other day -- hopefully we're speaking of the same article -- and I pointed out a lot of errors. It really is embarrassing to see a high-schooler with such horrendous spelling/grammar. I guess because we had Ms. Bennett, we're a bit more experienced.
So you know, like-a-thief is Stacia.
Thief: Yeah, thank God for Ms. Bennett!
And I'm pretty positive that we're talking about the same article.
jj: when i blog i disregard all punctuation and capitalization and i abbrev words lyk all the time lol

I think we should all write in Latin, they didn't use punctuation in Ancient Rome.

Whether the punctuation/spelling is correct or not, you still understood the point. So maybe we should all stop dressing like hoes.
as an authority on dressing well- haha- I think it's important to wear what you like and like what you wear. so if you feel comfortable wearing flip-flops in january, that's your perogative, and more power to you. there is a point though when you look like a complete jackass. but I reiterate, just wear stuff you like. peace, I hope you enjoyed the post.
SB: Just because some girls like to look attractive doesn't mean they are hoes. If modern day attire offends you, build a time machine and go live in the fifties. Otherwise, suck it up and stop being jealous that they can flaunt it and you can't.
