Why do spelling police and grammar gurus jump at the opportunity to humiliate others ?  Is it  to gain a sense of superiority by showing other users that they can spell simple words better than others? I understand commenting random tidbits and jokes just for the fun of it . I get the point of a spin off of someone else's comment and having fun with it or exchanging ideas even if they differ, It's all good stuff. I just don't get the point of ridiculing others because they are not perfect typers. For some people the spelling and grammar skills may have slipped away from lack of use on a daily basis, Others were not fortunate enough to get a good education. Just pointing out that there is a wide variety of people that enjoy this site, I know there are people out there that have great stories,Questions or information to share but they are intimidated by this crap and dont feel like posting just because of it. And for the record, I do not care how many mistakes there are in my comment (Or anyone elses for that matter).

Most that make fun of other peoples spelling really don't know anything but how to spell and others are just chicken s***ts behind a key board.

Here's my take/apology on that.  I posted it on the J & R taxidermy thread, but apparently that one got an early exit to the showers!



I'm guessing since scary man laid out his credentials as a genius on another topic, it was just too much to resist.  I'm pretty sure Horsager was just giving him the gears and not trying to ridicule him.  Anyway, if anyone deserves to get a couple in, it's Horsager after the grief he took in the Prius discussion!  I only pointed out his grammatical error because I've seen in the past that he can take it as well as dish it out, and it was meant in good fun.  I make plenty of errors in my posts and don't point out other's mistakes very often.  It just kind of makes you grit your teeth when someone tries to come off as being very intelligent and then uses the wrong word in their written argument/statement. 

I didn't mean to offend Horsager with my comment to him and I hope he forgives me!

You nailed it.  If someone thinks it's more than that, they're wrong, their wrong, there wrong?

I think I have some type of writing disorder. I notice after I already wrote something that some words are missing. I think of them as I'm writing, but sometimes certain words don't make it to the paper or keyboard.

I think your post would have been more effective had you mispelled  a bunch of words in it.

I find myself looking stuff up in the dictionary that sits next to the computer on occasion.  Just my own anal self making sure I do spell things correctly.

I really don't care much about what others do, but hyothetically;  if you were to compare two identical papers, written by two different people, one of which contained multiple spelling errors, which person would you assume was more intelligent.  That being said, that selection might be totally opposite were you to meet these two individuals in person. 

Life is tough; its tougher if you're stupid!!!!
