Atrocious Spelling

Monday, September 27, 2004 8:18 PM

Gawd, some days I just can't TAKE IT!

I know that not everyone is a champion speller, but can some of the people on various boards please at least TRY???

I just came from another board and someone had actually spelled spaghetti "spegetti"!!! The other day I saw someone spell peek as peak, and there are dozens, nay, hundreds of examples like this all over the web.

I hope this doesn't seem small and petty to you guys, because I just had to vent. I really can't stand it. It's a HUGE pet peeve of mine. I just think there's absolutely no excuse. As far as I know, every computer on the face of the Earth That Is has spellcheck!!

Typos are one thing, all of us have typed too fast, or hit the wrong key, but most of these aren't typos. PLEASE people! Take pride in your language skills! Read! Improve yourselves!
It can only amount to every kind of good.

*Whew* Thanks, Browncoats, for letting me get this off my chest.
