∞ Two spaces after a period: Why you should never, ever do it.

fancycwabs:

Wait, I’m supposed to not use two spaces after a period because a typographer says not to do it? Oh no! I might upset the typographers!

Being a typographer is like being a comic book or Star Wars nerd, only without any substantive source material you supplant your love of your subject with obnoxious pedantry about how everyone else is doing it wrong. I might start using three spaces from now on just to piss them off. Sorry, typographers—sometimes I don’t feel like coloring inside the lines.

Double-spacing after a period is totally retro.  All the cool kids are doing it now, but of course, I was doing it before it was cool.
