Are you serious???

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 )

actually im vice president of the company
and we can build them from the ground up

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.

I have no problem reading your posts.. probably because you space every line instead of capitalizing, which is fine IMO for forum banter and works. Or even jason longboards(only complaint with his is they're really long sometimes, w/no capitals.. lol)

I and I think alot of others are talking about the people who write in "alien" like jason said. "yO lIk i nows whts wrng wit yo fisys, the ars relly sicie"



I'll also agree with Gr8 as to the unrealness of NCLB.

Well I got lazy and did not read this entire thread. I am bad at grammer and spelling on the internet. I am ok with grammer and good with spelling when I write papers for classes or when I am writing something for customers at work. When I am at home I don't really care as long as it is readable. Id rather write like this at home b/c its a lot easier. =]

DRAMA!! You guys need to chill out I was joking man Read into my post again

I was more pokeing fun at myself screwing up not defending it, thats why the big was at the end, sorry if you took it the wrong way.

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

Dude, you should read all of my posts in this thread. I wasn't saying any of that. Apparently, my grammar does not allow me to convey my meaning.

I was simply saying that only the worst of the worst are annoying.

I'm not asking for any action to be taken.

It also opened the door to a broader discussion about the whole subject of spelling, grammar, etc.

Isn't that what the lounge is for? Discussion about non-fish related subjects?

A little off topic (myself, that is), but you reminded me of something. I work in retail, (one of my three jobs) and I see kids that age come in my store all the time.

Now, this blows my mind! I see young guys wearing tight, girls jeans! Huh?!?!

I'm told it's the emo look. I'll pass.

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?

I work for a newspaper. That's why we have proof readers.

People make mistakes. That's why pencils have erasers.
