tommygirlDear Supernatural fanfic writers (especially those at fanfiction.net):
It's LOSE or LOSING...not LOOSE or LOOSING. Nothing ruins a story for me more than reading, "Sam couldn't loose Dean." What does that mean? Is Dean too tight? That's really dirty for a gen fic, people. Good god.
It's not that hard to catch. Seriously. If Sam or Dean is worried about the other brother not being around anymore, please use the word LOSE from now on and spare me the injury of a rusty spoon to my eyes. If you don't think you can catch it on your own, I beg you to get a beta who does realize that adding an extra "o" changes the entire word!
Thank you!

Hee hee hee hee! Off-color spelling jokes make me happy, I guess.
