While we're at it - tighten up that punctuation!

To be honest, I don't know whether that would be a grammar or punctuation mistake. In trying to find out, I stumbled on this:

Abbreviations are shortened forms of words. Acronyms are abbreviations that are pronounced as words. Don’t begin a sentence with an abbreviation, it's just awkward. Don't assume that everyone knows all the abbreviations and acronyms you're using--spell it out the first time you use each one. You don't need to capitalize acronym explanations, i.e. CMOS (Complimentary Metal Oxide Semiconductor). This is an insult to your reader's intelligence.

Was this deliberate irony or stupidity?

Have you seen that kid spell?

Most egregious spelling mistake: "loose" instead of "lose." Loose means not tight. Lose means to not win. Got it? Good.

And don't get me started on people that think skier needs two i's for some reason. Since this is a skiing board I think we should at least be able to spell skier correctly.

Personally, I prefer "reCOCKulous" or the ever-dapper "reDONKulous."

[basom]

Ever since microsoft word came out I can barely spell my name. It auto corrects just about every word for me. As long as there's no red wavy lines I'm set! I love that program.

That's pretty funny.

Can we now have a lesson on "there", "their" and "they're"?

There you have it. Their spelling is poor. They're just really bad at spelling.

First they call us dumb, and now the Brits are picking on us for our spelling. I raise the cry of the Millwall faithful, "Nobody likes us. We don't care"
