I think this does not count as every five minutes, Birdie. This fic just stunned me because the author was obviously able to format, spell, use grammar and tap into a relatively large vocabulary.
Don't worry, I don't intend to make this a regular badfic LJ, but since I rec fic here, I think I can also occasionally discuss bad stuff.
Besides, I myself learned a lot from other people's posts about their pet peeves. I made very common mistakes when I started writing and I would still make them if I hadn't stumbled over rants like this one. It stung a bit at first, but I'll live.
