12736827, Is this even proper grammar to begin with?
Posted by Atillah Moor, Thu Feb-26-15 02:13 PM
I got an email from a co-worker who really tries my patience (which is a whole different post) but anyway today he sends this email with the following lead sentence:

"I wanted to clarify a couple of grammar and capitalization rules with in hopes that as you design materials you can catch me!"

Now is that off grammatically? Am I tripping?

Dude already deleted a whole folder of files that had stuff I was working on FOR HIM in it from the shared network. Man-- let me calm down.

maybe he's hoping you catch him? *shrugs*
