Are you serious???

[Lady G]

LMAO, so I bet you hate some of my posts. Yes, over all I try and be correct on my spelling, punctuations, and things...but sometimes I just click and go..not a big deal to me.

Yes, mozilla underlines the words but there are times that the word you are typing is not there, oh well...if you ever read something I post and you don't understand just tell me "HEY, WHAT THE HECK ARE YOU SAYING"

sorry not everyone can spell and type as good as you hawkfish
so pretty much you want a warning if you cant spell and type you cant sign up on mfk?
or new members have to pass a spelling test to get help here?
this is why most people dont talk they just hide out in the back.
i know people that cant spell a bit,not young and they are too nice and would do anything for ya.
they wouldnt put people down for bad spelling like you are here.
i suck at spelling and typing also.
so i guess i better stop typing so your happy here right?

in closing
mfk isnt a classroom
nothing will happen if something is missspelled
just because someone cant type doesnt mean they shouldnt get help here
just cus you can type doesnt make you better then anyone that cant type
if you cant read it,dont read it

"in forrest gump voice"
thats all I have to say about that

Mozilla underlines incorrectly spelled words in red. Also, jason longboard, your English is fine, I'm having a go at the TXT-Extremists.

I dont know most of those to be honest and I really dont have the time to figure it out.I know my English is good,however,Im not always going to type slower and spell check every post I make so I can .Ill break it down for you,like wurm said,kind of,its a bit laziness.Not all,but a little.I never type at work and the only real time I do is on here and a few other sites.I am very busy with other hobbies,family,friends,chores and work.I still have to look at the keys most of the time and back up to the screen.Due to the many threads that interest me on this site and a few others I like to get around as fast as I can.So I slack off a bit because its the only way i can get around to all the stuff I want and still have time for everything else.Out side of myself,I must stick up for others in the one point you are after in that if someone cant read or write well,then they are not a good person.I just want you guys to realy think that out and think of some good ppl you know and what really makes them good.As far as the net,If your trying to save time and don't type very well due to the lack of practice then that might come across as lazy to some but its not always the case.Could just be saving time,I know however what you mean by the texting because ppl think we are supposed to know it already and I dont care for it myself in all honesty.Not to an extreme like you said.By the way,a former surgical tech friend of mine who is going to med school still cuts himself now and then,I only mention this because I know several ppl that just blow my mind in grammar,English,all around knowledge and they to me don't know much about anything.They cant even find jobs now.Well,im working an alright job for now and Ive got tons of friends and family that know I am a good person.I by no means have a real skill in writing.Sorry for rambling,Im just trying to say the ppl that aren't typing good are not always some dill hole.My aunt can hardly read but not a person in her 50 years or so would deny her being an angel in their lives.Sorry again for the phsyco babble,guess i should move on.Good luck guys.

If English isn't your second language, then it isn't a big deal. I don't really get annoyed by poor spelling on the internet, because I've come to expect that.

The only thing that annoys me is people who don't separate their posts - they are just huge blocks of text without any punctuation... I just ignore those.

For people to think that horrible grammar and spelling isn't a big deal... what exactly is your career/career path?! I am in university, and it is actually sickening that people graduate from a respected program and can't write worth a damn.

Not a big deal here, but a good habit to get into. It doesn't matter how intelligent or creative you are; if you can't write well you have no credibility. This obviously varies depending on your career...

ok but i know plenty of ppl who can read and write like a Melville but they cant find jobs because they don't socialize well,don't have strong work ethics and have been in school so long they are afraid of the real working world.Im sorry but i see it everyplace i look and i would rather be a street smart hard worker with good common sense than an english major.Damn I thought I was leaving.shut up

thats because MFK is actually active and you gotta keep up.You thinking I'm not worth while because I don't take the time to type perfect grammar is the crap part.Ive never met a grown up that thinks this way and my friends are all teachers,lawyers,you name it,so its really hard for me to see your reasoning behind the dismissing someone because of the way they write on a website.Man thats the saddest thing I ever heard.I read all the time by the way.Well just so you know,Im a very well liked individual in my community and my typing did not put me in that spot.God bless and good luck making friends once you tell them they are out once you see they cant write.

If you read a newspaper that is full of misspelled words and poor grammar, wouldn't you dismiss it? What about a book you bought? A peer-reviewed journal?

If someone tells me:

"yo yr fsh has a funngal infction yuse melakite blue and itll work it helps me"

there is a good chance I'm going to pass on that advice

My path is research. If I write a poorly-written paper and submit it to a scientific journal to be reviewed, what do you think happens? Rejection.

"Street smart hard worker" only gets you so far... you also have to be a book-smart hard worker. A balance is key though, don't be an idiot and don't be a pencil pusher

now your talking about ppl who write in alien.lol.By the way,I cant read our paper here because they write it like they are speaking to 5 year olds and 80 year olds.Its like they are realy teaching us something and they want to get an upset out of us over 'Boby used the blue crayon"and it makes me barf.The writing and grammar is great,these ppl just dont know how to talk to ppl in real life Im telling you.After a coworkers daughter just died and I saw first hand how bad the papers and news here fights for every morsel and prints non accurate info I will most likely not read ever again in this paper.Please you guys,dont quote me anymore,Im trying to get out of this,lolnot sure if any of you read The Count Of Monte Cristo but if you did,while he was locked up all that time,he sure could have used a laptop and MFK.Time really flys by when your on this site.Ok leave me be,lol.

born and raised in the usa
i have no credibility cus i cant write good?lol
i build houses,no writing needed
without people like me you wouldnt be working in the a/c or heat and have it so easy.
so you worry about spelling,and we will worry about you having a/c or heat.

 

[japes]

we will worry about you having a/c or heat.

You should be worrying more about the structural integrity of frames, not the air conditioning, stop trying to make being a carpenter sound more useful than they already are

(I'm jesting too by the way, I used to be a carpenter )
