Do you proofread your post before submitting it?

Proofreading is a good thing!!!

Yes, but even though I proofread I sometimes miss errors, especially missing words. The mind plays tricks.  I just do the best I can.

Yes, and spell check too, but mistakes creep in,

No, I do not, but I read it after and a lot of times and then have to edit it.  I know I should read first, but I am always typing fast and making mistakes.

Sometimes I do, and even then my eyes can play tricks not to mention my fingers if arthritis is acting up. Sometimes that can frustrate and then I don't bother with the message. GROWING OLD IS NOT FOR SISSYS! LOL.

No, not usually, but then like Ballet Babe said, I re-read and edit the mistakes.

Yes and I still miss things.  The when I meant to say they is my most common error.  Does the OP judge others by their mistakes?  I sometimes do.

Yes.  However, I still miss things sometimes, and then I do go back and edit it (which may be immediately or later in the day when I actually catch it and go oomph!).
