If you only put a single space you are wrong, and will always be wrong. If you single space again you're going back to using a typewriter.

If you use LaTeX (pronounced LAY-tekh) then it automatically uses the appropriate inter-sentence spacing that your stupid thesis board requires

What in the world would be the catalyst for you thinking it is the standard? And what hosed up teacher taught you such an insane habit? Was it the same one that taught you that question marks are evil?

As a professional translator I have to deal with this on an almost daily basis. Let me assure you OP, while your writing habit is annoying (it messes up automated segmentation in translation tools), you are far from being the only one who does it. It seems to be an American thing.

I do it too OP because that's what I was taught but more importantly it makes some people really mad if they notice it (which almost never happens but it's still worth it).

I don't remember if they had us do this in college...I think they did. But the style guides for every writing job I've had just use one, so that's what I do now. College was so long ago. Like I remember only really weird people brought their laptops to type notes in class, but apparently this is normal now, I think. Crazy.
