For me I say that a truck with a cab longer than its bed is not a truck, but an SUV with an overgrown bumper.

Related, we have modern word processors with kerning. Only one space at the end of a sentence! I always find+replace when folks send me documents to publish with double-spaces.

Don't get me started. I write really long documents for a living. While I don't see this issue at work, when I encounter it in the wild, the vein on the side of my neck starts throbbing uncontrollably. Unfortunately, I'm married to a person who thinks the double space at the end of a sentence is a good thing.

Alimony is too expensive, is it?
