$ symbol

if someone cant read what i am saying just because i dont use a captial or a full stop then say sir are well i wont use the word otherwise i will probably get kicked off here. i can respect that some of you like to be all formal and have your writing spot on that is great, but seriously some of you need to stop complaining it makes it so painful to put up with.

I do however fully accept I'm a dinosaur with an understanding the universality of Muphry's Law.

That's the joke...

I admit that I'm a dinosaur, and I don't care. I detest "text speak", and rarely use abbreviations, unless I'm attempting to type on the iPad abomination that Apple have the cheek to call a keyboard.

English is a wonderful language, why would we want to abuse it, or shorten it to a series of indecipherable letters that don't have the same meaning to all readers?

And by the way, it's runs/wickets. Not the other way around :p

Currency symbol is fine after the value in the Eurozone, and nowhere else. :D

really the symbol should actually be after the number because what do we actually say $12 or 12$
the english language is a very broad and strange language with so many good things and bad things.
I would hate to tell you who actually has the best pronunciation of the words

Muphry's law is an adage that states that "If you write anything criticizing editing or proofreading, there will be a fault of some kind in what you have written". The name is a deliberate misspelling of Murphy's law.

No, not formal.
