Anyone Remember?
When you were supposed to put two spaces between each sentence? Ya, I missed the memo where that changed...

I just went straight to the source:

They don't say their is anything wrong with either, though the world is leaning towards one rather than two now.

to add fuel to the fire here. when i was a little kid, first grade etc. got in a debate with teachers over the proper way to say the word 'the' either "THE" or "THU" one year a teacher drilled me and corrected me to say "THE" then the next, another teacher did the same with the "THU" i tell you im still confused lol
so, you guys being the smart edumakated ppl that you are, what way is it?

I always did in live chat on Kali. ( A gaming gathering place ) Only once in awhile people would ask me why. It’s just when typing so fast I’d rather make sure there’s a gap between the words so I double up on the space. After awhile it became force of habit or more routine.
We're in the pipe , five by five.
I would say 'The' BH, but then only recently i've been told that i 'talk posh', in other words speak the Queen's English....long a etc, in glass, grass etc so it's gl-ah-ss and gr-ah-ss, as opposed to the stereotypically more working class pronuniciation with a shorter harder a. I guess the years of elocution lessons worked then..for which i'm grateful...a Leicester accent isn't the best one to have
