Spilling misstas, I can handle. A person cannot survive on internet fora - yes, fora - if he cannot handle spilling misstas. Unclosed parentheses, on the other hand.... it's like waiting for the other boot to drop, you know?
There's a story about a pianist who liked to torture his downstairs neighbour, also a pianist, by playing a famous piece at bedtime, but omitting the final chord. He would then wait to hear that chord coming from downstairs, after his victim had got out of bed, put his slippers on and traversed the apartment to get to the piano so that he could close the damned cadence himself, and finally get to sleep.
I totally get that.
