I'm no longer voting Biden. Not even voting Sanders or Clinton. None support the REAL ISSUE....

[LynneSin]

Until these candidates get on board and SUPPORT TWO SPACES after periods then I'm sticking with the real candidates who support this important issue:



Who is with me!!!!

[PoliticAverse]

1. Sorry...

But DU doesn't support multiple spaces after periods. See. Can't do it with normal typing. Not happening.

[Xyzse]

3. I know... DU has been stealing my extra spaces, and I have been keeping quiet about it for so long.

It just kills me slowly inside.

[LynneSin]

4. Skinner and Earlg are stealing the Hopes between my doubts

And we need to do something about it and soon!!!

[Xyzse]

7. I need hope right about now too.

[JustABozoOnThisBus]

32. Those ... DEMENTORS!!!11!

[mackerel]

34. Me likey!

[LiberalElite]

16. WHAT! I type two spaces after every sentence. They

take one of each away!!!!?????? Where do they put them????? (joke)

[Xyzse]

2. I may just be with you. However, I will vote for the Democratic Candidate in the General Election.

For the Primaries, I am there with you.

[Baitball Blogger]

5. Count me in among the two period-space oppressed.

[LynneSin]

6. I've just posted in 'Ask the Admin' to please bring back the double space

They never asked us if they could steal our second space. We want it back. Our voices will be heard. The penguin has spoken. The cat has said TBHTT. It's time we DUers make our voices heard!!!

[Baitball Blogger]

10. I was space-shamed on a discussion board once.

Laughed at and ridiculed. They said I should practice minimalist writing and that maybe I would read better if I slimmed down a bit on the wide spaces.

I was hurt.

[LynneSin]

12. Next time we will shame those sentence shortcut shirkers back

secretly I bet they support Donald Trump or even worse Bobby Jindal

[sarge43]

8. Hey, what's your after the colon space stand - one or two?

Period elitists: Thbbft

[LynneSin]

9. I always do two spaces after a colon

That's the way it should be: Thbbft back at ya!

[LiberalElite]

17. and also between the state and the zip code in an address nt

[antiquie]

11. Lulls of lucidity

and hope between doubts.  Provided by that doubled post-period space.     Sigh.

[TeamPooka]

13. In a 140 character world every space counts. #oneanddone. nt

[kentauros]

14. Not with you.

So there. <--(one space) Again.

[LynneSin]

21. Then you are with the terrorists

And to think I once called you my friend

[kentauros]

25. No, I'm with the LexiCONS!

Plus, we advent the use of the semi-colon; instead of insisting on short, awkwardly-reading sentences

[LynneSin]

26. So that's the name of your Terrorist organization. I'll alert Homeland security

Expect full body cavity searches next time you try to fly if they even allow you to board a plane.

[kentauros]

30. I have no body cavities.

Remember, I only use one space, not two

[LynneSin]

31. So what you're saying is you are full of shit

[kentauros]

33. Or I'm full of bot.

How do you know, really?

[LiberalElite]

15. I was taught in typing class -

TWO spaces after the period and I stick to it. So there.

[lunatica]

29. My right thumb is trained for 2 spaces

I'd have to rebuild every synaptic connection if I had to re-train my fingers to type on one space!

[Laffy Kat]

18. Former medical transcriptionist here:

I am not even CAPABLE of typing one space. It appalls me, actually. (Plus, we used to get paid for lines or characters in the old days; spaces = $.) You will have to pry that second space from my cold, dead fingers...um....well, whatever.

[NV Whino]

19. Two spaces is a banable offense.

[malthaussen]

20. Definitely the burning issue of the times.

I've seen more outcry and back-and-forth on social media over this question than over plenty that would seem more important. The nice thing about this controversy, I suppose, is that people figure they can express their opinions without fear. Of course, they're wrong about that.

22. I was hoping this was about Lee Mercer, Jr. ...

... but good enough.

[magical thyme]

23. Extra space = moment of Grace! I'm ALL IN!!!!!

If only for this...

[muriel_volestrangler]

24. What you need is &nbsp;

Type that instead of a space, and you can have multiple ones.           See?

[lunatica]

27. You can't do deep and profoundly meaningful thinking with only one space

Everybody needs space!

[LynneSin]

28. And how does Bernie stand on 2 spaces

Either he is with us or he might as well go join the GOP and debate with them!
