If I don't put two spaces after my periods, how will people know I have a degree in English literature? It is the quickest, easiest and most passive-aggressive way I know to communicate the smug superiority I feel about having a humanities degree and how that makes me an objectively better human being than anyone with a degree that's actually relevant to their careers.

Wait. Seriously asking. No more double space after a period?
