AYEEEEE
One of my autistic traits is spelling everything as perfectly as I can manage. Even my texts employ proper punctuation and grammar.
Same here I can't stand wrong punctuation/grammar/spelling etc.

Especially when you call them out on it and they just shrug and said "it doesn't matter"
On the point of calling someone out, an emoticon is not a full stop. Don't forget to punctuate, folks!

See, now, I agree with you there, and I'd watch my punctuations in a more formal context. But some people seem to think punctuations don't matter, full stop (pun intended). These people are typically the same people who think you don't need to bother with spelling because 1) it's so old-fashioned or 2) there's spellcheck or 3) they're just lazy and they claim everyone understand them anyway even if their spelling is horrid.
I say good spelling facilitates easy and efficient communication and, if nothing else, it's a matter of simple public decency. I don't hold it against someone if they're a bad speller, as long as they at least recognises that they are bad spellers, acknowledges the importance of good spelling and watch their spelling as needed, instead of telling me to "get on with the times".
