Sam: It's just, I wish you would drop the show and be my brother again, 'cause... just 'cause.
Because this? This was what I wanted the mission statement of S3 to be.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
OMG. Stop making Dean a crap speller, people.
Stop hurting me.

Because books.
Fic, I assume? Dean is smart, people!
I can't believe we're essentially done with the S3 deathmatch. Only two seasons left! And it's only been three weeks since hellatus started!
We'll need some other distractions soon.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.
I know. I'm still a little pissed over the GED thing.
Be my brother again.

So come, my friends, be not afraid/We are so lightly here/It is in love that we are made; In love we disappear
For the record, my Idiot Younger Brother has a ridiculously high IQ, a GED, and a complete inability to spell.
(Come to think of it, so did Psycho Ex 1.0.)
Smart and crap spelling/lack of a high school diploma are not mutually exclusive.
That said, we've seen Dean's note. The spelling looked fine.

As did his handwriting!
Somehow I imagine Sam has really messy doctor's scrawl.

He was caps happy, but it was perfectly legible and seemed well spelt. So there, haters.
It always seems to be a way to highlight a difference between his brain and Sam's. Sam will text properly, and Dean won't even be shorthand, he'll be crappy. Pfft.

And, frankly? I'd think *Sam* would be the one more likely to go for text speak and emoticons and failure to punctuate. Because he was more immersed in that culture at college.
I see your pfft and support it in email.

I pfft and support as well.
The comment about the GED was toward the writers, not the GED. Perfectly cromulent people, etc. To me it was lazy shorthand, and I'd rather they not have gone there. Certainly not without explaining it might have been that or another year of school because of absence due to injury, or something unavoidable, rather than (possibly) implying Dean couldn't function well enough in a structured school environment to stay and graduate. Because that rings untrue, at least to me. Maybe it doesn't to others, though.
