THANK YOU!! This punctuation error makes my eyes hurt! Unfortunately, spelling, grammar, and punctuation errors leap off the page, almost like grains of sand irritating my eyes and brain.

On the flip side, if someone who does well at math looked over my math scribblings (plural, just add the "s"), I am sure they (the scribblings) would burn out his/her retinas. 😂🤣

Arithmetic is about the extent of my math skills, decades after having had to do algebra and worse!

But you're right about how writing errors "leap off the page"! I do make these sorts of comments/corrections from time to time, and always get a few deriding me for being so picky or what have you. I just shrug, because they don't have a clue. Actually, it's as if a musician just randomly dropped the rules of musical notation yet still expected others to accurately reproduce the sound he had intended.
