"After all" is two words. For the sake of one sentence, re-read what you just said. You could also avoid ending sentences with an elipsis (three periods) - if you must, go for four as a sentence terminator as opposed to the linking three. Or better yet, learn their use and don't use them at all outside of comics and fictional colloquialism.

Don't worry Penny, there will come a day (withholding its immense distance) where you look upon forum posters and other ill-bred ilk and think to yourself that they'd find it so easy, and would rise in so many of our (albiet shallow, perhaps even darwinian) perceptions of their writing, get past the ego and instead work on the self. Or at least, that small aspect of it that constructs meaningful communication.

I bet you didn't know that most of your interpretation of communication with the outside world is assumed through past experience: you only share a tiny sliver of situational parity with your second party.

There's only one thing that overrides experience - active analysis and persistant thought. I hereby propose that you don't think much at all when it comes to communication, and as a dear friend I hate to see you sploshing about the in the shallows whilst the rest of us are at sea.
