Warning- Spell Check Malfunction!
Before I leave, I just HAVE TO share this...
As I am surfing around, I read the following: "
I may not have a college degree but that does NOT make me uneducated, stupid, ingnorant" end quote.TRUE story!
Sheesh, now I gotta try to figure out what "ingnorant" means...
XOXO
Me
PS
I will be back soon.
if you look for people's mistakes I am sure you will find them, If i notice them I hope i am polite enough to no pay attention to them. Sorry you felt you just HAD to share them or it actually.
ReplyDeletelol, oops a bit of a the fingers going dyslexic?
ReplyDeletehappens to me all the time. lol
ReplyDeleteI am getting awful with spelling errors and where to put commas and such lately.........
ReplyDeleteooh, and lots of times actually most of the time, not capitalizing either, lol.
Me too, the kids today never use grammar , maybe second childhood? lol
ReplyDeleteI like Bug Bunny's way of saying it though......maroon! lol
ReplyDeletei type every day at work on a computer then come home here....at this point ...i love to misspell it makes me seem intellegant
ReplyDeletehahahahahaha
ReplyDeleteAnd yet a google search of the word turns up 147,000 matches in just 0.24 seconds.......
ReplyDeleteINCLUDING the urban dictionary where it is misspelled NUMEROUS times....
I liked this little gem:
"SoapBox (575 posts) Sun Aug-22-10 11:37 PM
Response to Original message
6. This shows how ingnorant and stoopid Americans have become"
Or this one:
"Your the most stubborn, ingnorant, self-centered, impractical, uncultured, cynical, bitter, hot headed, short tempered, physical, unapproved by my parents, a bit of an asshole, jerk.
But i love you, completely<3"
You should see some of the letters and words my fingers type out after getting messages from my brain; some of the formations of words are back to front ect, my fingers type words prior to receiving the complete message from my brain, therefore my fingers are in fact showing complete ignorance towards the motor of the vehicle engine.
ReplyDeleteI also think I have Screen Text Attention Deficit Disorder as well :-(
which by the way has nothing what so ever to do with this post :-) Have a lovely night there
when I have a migrane I spell inside out lol
ReplyDeleteand I quote as per your own words in one of your own comments....But I am NOT a liar!
ReplyDeleteThis post is proof positive that you CAN see what's on my page!!!! Like you have never misspelled something and not noticed it!!!! GEESH!!!
While people like you are getting through life being polite, I am thinking about kids and others who actually are TRYING to learn, and encounter something like this.
ReplyDeleteSo, in accordance with your scripture I am impolite.
That's OK.
The point was NOT to point out a single spelling error- See, it was the actual word that was misspelled that was quite hysterical -in a very sad way.
Read the entire statement- This error makes the whole statement null and void.
Spell check is just a single click away... So it is not only stupidity, it is laziness.
You, like many others, find this acceptable. Clearly, I do not.
ReplyDeletehehehe
Nah. Fingers are doing the thinking!
Thank you Will.
ReplyDeleteYou actually "got" it.
Truly, it is a gem!
ReplyDeleteROTFLMAO!
ReplyDeleteI absolutely LOVE that last one!
You have STADD?
ReplyDeleteThank you too! I am having a 'wondermous' night!!!
ReplyDeleteI believe I do the same thing when I have a migraine.
The author mentioned many things, but did not mention any reason to misspell anything.
Again, the exact spelling error is what makes that sentence completely remarkable..
I believe I provided the link to the post I could not see. I never said I could not see the rest of your page.
ReplyDeleteOf note is DeeAnne's comment of how many exact errors JUST LIKE THIS were found on the internet from only one search engine.
Sure, I have misspelled a whole bunch of things- a whole bunch of times.
I am not perfect. Nor have I ever ever claimed to be.
Be that as it may, there IS a little red line that appears when one types a "boo~boo" -That little red line should be telling us something...
Additionally, there is a preview button on Multiply (and almost everywhere else), that would also highlight any potential problem areas.
Use it, or not. Your choice.
But if you don't want to use it, and had this comment come from your page, then you deserve to be remarked upon.
The correct use of a language is to convey the content's intention to the recipient.
ReplyDeleteSibylic content should be minimal and presented without cross reference.
Spelling is the result of usage and meaning in the first instance until the word comes into full use.
Entered into a Dictionary, the word and its spelling should be accepted as normal.
Vocabulary?
Normally a useful number in basic form and a maximum number where a discipline is involved.
A Multi disciplined person may have knowledge of at least 1,000 words per discipline.
Bill,
ReplyDeleteYou are a rare gem of a man!
Thank you for this!
XOXO
Me
Must ask... (Please forgive my ignorance).
You lost me with your use of "sibyllic". Is that prophetic?
My computer is dragging badly- or I would go look it up.
to true and like you said spell check is wonderful and just a click away
ReplyDeleteI'm college educated, and still make errors in my spelling, spell check is a beautiful thing, however I will admit most times I dont use it...lol.....dunno why.....probably because the eye can read things totally misspelled and still comprehend it. aaaaaaaaaaand I'm lazy.....You know what I just noticed my Sweet Annie, there are two people who read you that I had as my friends and I deleted them because they give me a friggen headache...lmao.......
ReplyDeletexoxoxoxoxoxox
Dear Annie,
ReplyDeleteSpell check is too easy to use. I lament that there are many instances where homonyms are used incorrectly. Another example of a lack in grammar as is spelling. There and their are NOT interchangeable. To and too are so frequently misused that to see them used properly is getting unusual. Poor spelling drives me batty and yes, I am as guilty of it as the next person. My personal misspelling or poor grammar can be attributed to not proofreading first. (I hate it when I do that!) LOL.
Now that I have been all over the board, I will quietly go away so you can giggle at my mental perambulations this morning.
oxox,
snotball
Well for one thing , I wonder why it was so important to anyone that the typo was world changing in some way
ReplyDeleteSweet Pam;
ReplyDeleteI am giggling at YOU being lazy! hehehe (Yeah, right). I get worn completely out just reading of all of your adventures. Course then when you mention your yummy foods, then I get hungry too. hehehe
I received an email once upon a time that had only the first and last letters of every word in their correct position. All the remaining letters to each word were jumbled. Yet the mind can read each word as if it is OK.
A mind is a wonderful thing!
XOXO
Me
PS
She was deleted a long time ago, during her unwise attempt at posting a HealthCare blog.
Or maybe she deleted me for trying to post the links to the bill so she could read and learn?
Either way, she is deleted but not blocked. (If I blocked her, these things wouldn't be so much fun for me).
I know. Twisted, right?
Sweet Snotball!
ReplyDeleteI will be adding to your list on a blog of my own. There was an article on Readers Digest a while back about just that sort of thing.
While I am really NOT the "Spelling Mafia", to make an error like the one above, (especially when trying to make that specific point), was laughable! (To me).
No. To be honest, it was hysterical...
... Suffice to say that I was darn happy I didn't have a cold.
XOXO
Me
PS
You are most welcome to run around my board any old time you wish!
ReplyDeleteDear Bill,
I just wanted to thank you once again for your wonderful note!
I love when you write!
XOXO
Me
Here it is again.
ReplyDeleteTo make an error like the one above, (especially when trying to make that specific point), was/IS/ and should be laughable!
XOXO
Me
I see only a part of the audience caught the humor.
ReplyDeleteThat is why the word "IRONY" was invented....
the humor is in calling someone a name while BEING that same word.
We caught it, we just did not think it funny , cute or otherwise.
ReplyDeleteWell if you caught it, then I wasn't talking about you then.
ReplyDeleteOh for heaven's sake! Don't get your panties in a bundle.... It was just something hilarious that she stumbled across...
ReplyDeleteIf a person is so conceited that they are unable to laugh at themselves, there's a problem... You have to be able to laugh at yourself or more appropriately said, with yourself or life will be absolutely awful...
YES!
ReplyDeleteI second that thought...
The irony that this quote is setting is great! "I'm going to prove I'm not stupid, then in that same sentence, prove that I am!"
WOW!!
Takes all kinds, I guess... :)
I might be outnumbered by idiots, but I'll never give in to them!!!
Yep, funny how things turn out that way, right???
ReplyDeleteThis is exactly why "IRONY" was invented!!! I am still laughing my butt off about this slip!!!
SO...
ReplyDeleteWhy are you commenting then???
Seems as though I was taught that if I didn't like something, to stop looking at it...
If you don't like this blog... Get off... Problem solved... You don't have to see it anymore...
Why is this concept so friggen hard for people to get???
Do you like exposing yourself to things that hurt you or things you dislike???
If so, I would talk to a doctor if I were you, because that's just not right... Not trying to be mean here, just trying to understand the reasoning behind these actions...
Mommy!!
ReplyDeleteThis is the funniest thing I've seen all day!! Definitely the most ironic, too! I can't believe that the person who wrote this missed that word! That completely proves that the whole statement should be ignored...
Sorry "others" have found this to be disturbing, or cruel... But, they must be into that S&M stuff if they keep bringing themselves back to things they don't like!!! It's like hitting yourself in the face and then complaining because it hurts... DUH?
Anywho, thank you for posting this! Absolutely made my day!
Love you MUCH MUCH!
~CaseyAnne
"Irony!"
ReplyDeleteWhere the heck was that simple word when I was looking for it????
'Tis the way of our world Sweet Pea;
But then again it only solidifies Astra's comment above "The average American is a moron."
Or... a "Maroon" as Suzy pointed out!
hehehe
XOXO
Me
Humor is EVERYTHING!
ReplyDelete(And if one doesn't have a sense of humor about anything, you will just have to trust me on that)!
Who is "we" ?
ReplyDeleteDo you have a mouse in your pocket?
ReplyDeleteBless me Father for I have sinned.
I giggled at this.
Words SO true-
ReplyDelete... Especially when spoken from one who has stared "Death" in the face and LAUGHED at him too!
That's either balls or brightness. (I rather like to think it is both).
XOXO
Me
ReplyDeleteSlip?
I have a slip in my closet upstairs.
ReplyDeleteI am wordless.
That person, -and as was pointed out, 146,999 others as well.
ReplyDeleteGo figure.
I love you too-
Forevermorelonger.
XOXO
Me
I just 'hafta' go hit myself in the face now...
hehehehehehe
ReplyDeleteIs that a sin?
I have said it before.....
ReplyDeleteIt is hard to take death seriously when you are picturing him with the waistband of his underwear pulled up over his head...
HAHAHHAHAHAHAHA! OH! HEHEHEEEHEEHHEEEHEHEHEHEHEE! Wipes tears away. Wait... What?
ReplyDeleteWhazzamatta?
ReplyDeleteYou didn't like this blog?
hehehe
Well said!
ReplyDelete(That's called a "wedgie" isn't it)?
Hmmm? "Death with a Wedgie"
Yes. I like it quite much!
hehehe
Death with a wedgie EXACTLY
ReplyDeleteYou said you were wordless. At first I thought you were making a funny, then I panicked and decided to prepare for armageddon in case you were serious. All stocked up now.
ReplyDelete
ReplyDeleteROTF...
But you can get out of the bomb shelter now...
XOXO
Me
I'm sorry you felt you had to reprimand Annie for her choice.
ReplyDeletePerhaps if we bring more attention to these errors, people will learn to spell, & use grammar correctly.
I'm dyslexic, due to severe nerve damage from an antibiotic in 1997. I wasn't born with it. This has made typing very difficult for me, & I can't even write by hand.
ReplyDeleteI assume that you must have taken the time to preview your post, as I always do. I don't feel that there is any excuse for misspelling unless...
a person is ingnorant.
I'm doing this in reverse, so, what I say may have already been stated.
ReplyDeleteWell said, Annie.
Oops, Heidi! " too true..." :~)
ReplyDeleteYou're not alone, I often see too for to or to for too...hmm...sounds like a song! ♪
As I wrote, I'm reading this blog in reverse!
ReplyDeleteYour & you're is another. My favourite rants are "The both of them," & "What school did you went?"
So far, it seems that ingnorant may soon be in the dictionary!
Did anyone say it was "world changing?"
ReplyDeleteGood response. Some people aren't even aware that they're contradicting themselves.
ReplyDeleteSomeone gets their panties in a bundle a lot....almost gave poor Jack a nervous breakdown....hee hee!
ReplyDelete
ReplyDeleteNo comment needed.
"Bark softly and carry a big bone"
ReplyDelete(Sorry Sweetie. I just had to).
That's fine!
ReplyDeleteI'd prefer to say: Yap incoherently while slobbering on an old bone.
You know what they say about dogs with big bones?
ReplyDelete
ReplyDeleteWhat do they say?
Does it really mean he has BIG paws????
big mouths.
ReplyDeleteBa Dah Boom!
ReplyDeleteI'll be back. HUGS
ReplyDeleteBig mouth, small brain.
ReplyDelete(Or what I said before.)
*bows*
ReplyDeleteThank you, I'll be here all week!
You guys are so funny to wake up to!
ReplyDeleteI have said it before, and always it bears repeating...
"I HAVE THE 'BESTEST' FRIENDS LIST IN ALL THE WORLD"
No malfunctioning on that list!
Love, Me
I have a silly little poem (internal rhyme) that rolled off my tongue in a situation something like this.
ReplyDelete"Heeheeheeheeheeheeheeheeheehee
Someone is trying hard to get to me
I wonder if it could be jealousy or
JUST a bone stuck in a craw, maybe
a stomach ache or green bile.
DOG WITH A BONE
by Lucija Jovanovic
A dog with a bone
JUST can’t leave it alone.
The bone is splinters
in its teeth, causes awful
grief! Perhaps I should give
it some relief, toss a piece of
meat loaf over my balcony
rail? I hate to see it flail, poor
thing, there on the ground!
Will it be taken to the pound?
Doesn’t seem to have a home,
JUST an old, splintered bone."
ReplyDeleteVery cute!
If one really gets to the depth of this rhyme, it is quite dangerous! hehehe
Well said!
XOXO
Me
Some people just have to worry things to death it seems. LOL.
