You may have just doubled the literary proficiency of this message board with a single post.

 

[OPECJet]

Excellent thread, sir.

If there was ever a show called "Are You More Illiterate Than A Fifth Grader?", the producers could fill at least three entire seasons exclusively from FI!

You simply have no excuse for poor spelling these days! Their are tons of good resources online to insure that your not going to look like an idiot. You must insure that your spending a little time on a spellcheck to find out weather you are even close. Bad spelling can not only make you look like a retarded third grader, it can make your devoted readers loose their minds!

 

[kngarthur]

Your an idiot!

 

[crj567]

Your an idiot!

Very interesting....

Looks like a great way for some nerd who works at Cmabrigde Uinervtisy to attempt to justify there tenure.

I wonder who actually gets to decide what the proper spelling of a word is. I'm thinking some narcissistic midget locked up in a tower somewhere. Just my personal theory.

Remimds me of english class many years ago.

"which, witch is which"

 

[arjayeffo]

Really, I could care less about this.

 

[Daytonaflyer]

I wish they'd included "further" and "farther".

 

[flytheblue]

That hurts my eyes!
