Yeah that instantly :triggered: me before I even read the actual content.

I feel like there are glaring errors in almost everything I see published these days. I'd like to help make the world a better place by getting people to pay me to proofread for them, but apparently noone cars bout tit. :disgust: :fax:
:dat: is how 25% of my posts come out when I post through my Samsung. :disgust: :derp:
:word: I mean it is one thing on a forum about nothing with 12-20 people reading it, in a published work, it is very :wtf:

I can't say I proofread every post here, but it is not hard to check over something that will be seen by many or is an important document.

About an hour. But, I’d offer to go pick Max up from Austin airport and take him to the dealerman
Was just thinking about that... looked into flights... $249 :notbad: but not great either.

Right on.

I've been meaning to make a trip to Austin. Might swing down to SA and say hello to a :narc:
If you plan on coming for a weekend, you will find plenty to do and some awesome driving roads that connect Austin, San Antonio and the hill country between them.

Look up Fredericksburg, TX.

These days, writers are paid by the article, and next to nothing for each one. They're rewarded by quantity over quality, which is :disgust: on so many levels. Also why I trust very little that I read. There's no way anyone can take the time to properly fact check things with how quickly "articles" are crapped out.

Here it's just :ohwell: or the "Tarspin has edited this post 2 times, last edit: 09:15:22" or whatev.

A step above simply proofreading is the Grammarly software package that does it for them. $100/year and totally worth it. My wife has it loaded on her computer and is a game changer for her report writing. 5/7 recommend for a journalist that doesn't know how to write.

My brother's new house is in the Austin hill country, the southwestern part.
We've taken his TT out there, some nice roads for sure!

Not that it matters. A huge number of "domestic" full size pickups are made in Mexico too. I'm surprised there hasn't been more uproar about that.

So a well built car imported from China is fine?
