A repository that tries to feel superior by correcting your mistakes. I've been culturally insensitive and rude.
The heart of this project is a user of the same name on github, orthographic-pedant. This user scans popular repositories for common typos and will attempt to correct them with proper pull requests. This bot is in its infancy. You can guide the development by sending it scathing diatribes as an issue.
