On Spelling Etc...

Friday, April 21, 2006

This blog is not intended to be a Language Arts class. If someone has a typo or error and you know what they mean, read it, accept it and move on. The only time one should correct a spelling or grammar error is when they need clarification, not to flaunt their superior grasp of the written word. This is not the spelling bee blog.

That is, unless I make a spelling or grammar mistake; especially if it includes the incorrect use of capital letters. To clarify, capitol letters, like in “Washington D.C.” are acceptable. My use of nuance and clever word play will be ruined if I am allowed to make grammar and spelling mistakes. Thus, if you spot one, please attack me publicly as soon as possible. It’s the only way I’ll ever learn. If you are not up to public attacks, feel free to email me or send me a bitter podcast.

fo schnizzle my nizzle!

Pish Posh,

If I can bitch slap some cornhole chomper for believing a magical sky pixie flooded the earth and only a Jew with a magic boat survived with his private petting zoo, I can damn well piss in someone’s cornflakes for egregious spelling errors, at my whim.

So there.

I suck at spelling, that’s why I type out everything in MS Word before posting. Please feel free to throw my own poop back in my face if I misspell a big word.

I’d like to commend the use of the phrase “cornhole chomper” and also give my accolades to the MS Word spell checker for allowing it to be used.

I have a customized spell check dictionary for just such occasions of colorful language use.

That, and oddly enough, spelling vile language has never been a challenge for me. It’s a gift. A gift I have chosen to share with the world.

I like poo

You actaully type out everything in microsoft word?

For a dude who bites the heads off of other animals, you sure care!

You know, it never occurred to me that what I did was abnormal. It seems like such an obvious way to do things. Especially if your typing and spelling sucks as bad as mine does.

I mean typing without a spell checker is like torturing a baby panda without using a rusty razor blade. Sure you can still do it, but why make more work for yourself?
