[twodko]

I hear you Brock. Spell Check is such any easy tool to use.....just click the button!
Come on members, lets push using the "Spell Check" feature. 

[chargd72]

Can we have a grammar button too?  Because someone might write "LETS push using the 'spell check' feature" instead of "Let's push using the 'spell check' feature.

actually it's "Lettuce".. 


I'm wondering if maybe they're (they are) (nearly) blind or at least unable to see the keyboard, I'm imagining huge gnarled hands and fingers missing from the misuse of tinsnips?.. I guess would type like that if I couldn't see the keyboard in fact I'm sure.. I but it's pretty annoying to have to twist my feeble lill old mind into pretzels attempting decipher someones posts -     folks who obviously make no attempt to even try to correct the dozens of mistakes made in virtually every sentence... I tried to write so folks can understand... but maybe they just missed school...  
I'm gonna hit spell check now cause I see I made a few spelling mistakes... cause I'm not perfect as you may have noticed...   'n That's the problem when folks don't take responsibility for their messes.

And - punching a bunch of smilies don't make your posts any more lucid.... look it up!

We also need a feature to decode the ever increasing abbreviations brought on by all the texting.

And again, it's not the letter of the law but the spirit of the law.

Niiiice! Chargd72, I'm picturing you hanging from the rim with both hands right now.

I also have to give Brock some "recovery points" for that most clever "Lettuce" reponse.

As far as grammer goes, the great Steve Martin (comedian, not actor) said it best with, "some people have a way with words and some people,,, not,,,have,,way....."

I am guilty of misuse of the English language, run on sentences, and improper punctuation. I consider myself to be somewhat literate, but no English major. I try and use spell check and hope for the best.

Someone's spell check was broke on this day.

"Vinyl"  

[Brock Samson]

 yeah "vinyl" that's one I always have problems with, also steering "column". there's a few others too,..  

but i don't just go around making up my own spelling, grammar and punctuation rules, unless of course it's Lettuce and General lee witch are spelling miss steaks used to signal it's all in fun...   the "...s" are more like how the words are spoken or is it Spokane"?

[Manfred318]

Spelling first, grammar later. Lettuce all just get along 

[MoparManJim]

Okay, I'll throw myself out in front of that bus that is coming right now down the street... I'm guilty.

Dave,

As much as I hold out hope that we are all budding, and, hopefully, someday, blossoming Bill Buckleys, I realize that that old axiom "you can bring a horse to water..." still holds water. If some members want to drink kool-aid instead then they have made their bed, and all we can do, as lamp-holders of linguistic accuracy, is ask that they change their sheets once in a blue moon. Capisci? 

I have to admit, though, that sometimes I correct posts if I have quoted them. Just doesn't feel right not to....

All that being said, intent is everything. 

Dan

  I realize of course that some guys are absolute masters of automotive engineering but may not have approached a keyboard prior to this past Christmas, But then, there's the little pearls of wisdom... 
  Oh, but for the want of some rudimentary "Quality Control", but the cats out of the barn the bats have flown the freebell and Bessie?.. she's just ain'ta commin' back.

I'm using the most gooderist word I can! 

[TUFCAT]

I'm glad this thread exists - bad spelling on this site (or any other) makes the author appear less credible about the subject, or just plain uneducated.

[skip68]

I don't even no wat youse guys are talkin bout. .   I thingk most of's us typ okay but some's of's us dont and that makes me feel bad that we all can't do gooder and if we try...  The other day my friends came over in a blue car but they always driving a red car so I didn't know who it was but then when he opened the door I sawl him and I said why he's drivin a blue car and he said the red car got broke and he got the blue car now.....  That was funny because he likes red cars and not blue but now he is drive blue car and not red...  Hahaha.  I told him he could pain blue car red and make the car red that way he will drive a red car again and not have to be in a blue car but he said ok.   scooby doo is my best cartoon and if you want to no why I will tell youse.  When I was little I usedto see tv all the time but one day at my grandmas house, she had a blue car too because she likeded blue from when she was a little kid back in school she had a blue pensil and after that evry thing had to be blue. But anyway I say scooby doo at her house and I new I likeded it since then.  Do you guys want to no what my favborit color is?
