Judging from the name, I figured it would have something to do with medical marijuana.

LMAO that would be very fun to watch.
And yet, they still have better grammar than you. Funny.

Anyone who uses incorrect spelling and/or grammar as an excuse to discredit the substance of a post is someone who I find hard to take seriously. A person's grammar or spelling holds no relationships towards the point of a post. I find that more often than not, the grammar nazi's of this forum can't reply to the actual content and substance of the thread and thus hide behind a simple typo or grammatical mistake.

I guess the OP got upset when, in an earlier, incomprehensible thread he began, I noted that I would have to translate his language into French, then into German, then back into English, in order to try to get my mind around it.

I'm afraid that the German translation, which is where I am at present, has not helped. I did detect that the thread had something to do with German Dumplings, although that may be my upcoming lunch speaking to my mind.

Improper grammar

Well, if your job consisted of a reasonable mastery of the the English language and grammar, then I would say yes. Make a grammar mistake on your resume and see what happens.
