Sorry for the double posting sin, but I had to add that apparently Wendy Apple's son is actually not for the English-teacher-hate. He posted on his Facebook about it.

The only thing that I'm really sure about in this case is that the poor dear desperately needs a makeover. Other than that, I'm not entirely convinced that "writing" is the right word. Perhaps, as Truman Capote suggested, this is more of a case of "typing."
Amnirov, I want to see your picture.
I'm afraid I haven't imagined you as very different in style from the talented Miss Mays.
Oh, I'm hideous. Almost troll-like, really.

The support this teacher is receiving is heartening. I hope it blows over.

Unfortunately, I think conjugate gives good advice.
