I have absolutely no bad habits.

Wait, compulsively stabbing stuff isn't a bad habit, is it?

I actually consider myself an excellent speller. For some reason, i seem to just know how things are spelled. It comes naturally to me. i'm pretty good at spelling bees... well, i would be, but i get nervous and over-think things. I spelled the word "editor" E-D-I-T-E-R in fifth grade, becuase i was arguing with myself whether or not it was E-R or O-R, and i ran out of time, so i had to say something.

A trick my 5th/6th grade teacher said was that the general rule for remembering if a "one who" word ends with -er or -or is that if the suffix "ion" can replace the ending, the word ends with -or.

Examples:
inventor -> invention
editor -> edition
operator -> operation

singer -> ~~singion~~

A few exceptions I can think of are "doctor," "sailor," and "tutor."
Hmm, it looks like the roots of the -or/-ion words end with a "t" (as the last consonent). I can't think of any good examples that don't. Hmm... XD

That post made me think of Skeletor, Overlord of Evil.

HE-MAN: A lava pool?! Nothing could survive THOSE temperatures.
SKELETOR: Precicely!

I don't understand your last sentence.

Replace the triple full stop with a hyphen to understand it.

Although this isn't my habit, I hate it when, on the forum or chatroom, people just call me 'Luigi'.
