We are anonymous, but shouldn't we show the same courtesy as if we weren't anonymous?
If we were dealing with someone face to face and they wrote out something misspelling a word, would any of us say,"Learn to spell." I have seen things like that.

Also doesn't our religions teach us charity toward people who might have handicaps, visual, learning etc."

In Britain the rules of spelling and grammar are not always the same as the U. S. That is why someone got so angry and ask a question about spelling.

In Britain they think of words like nation, country, state etc as plural words since they comprise many people and they use verbs are, were, etc.

In the U. S. we think of them as single entities even though they comprise many people and we use the verbs is, was,etc.

Aren't good manners more important than good spelling and correct grammar?

The term "good dream" doesn't have the same dramatic effect as "nightmare" you know what I mean? It should be something with more punch in it. Are you OK with words like good and nice to describe the opposite of NIGHTMARE? While we are on the subject, the word "nightmare" is a noun yes? "Nightmarish" is an adjective, all though people commonly say "today was a nightmare" instead of "today was nightmarish" so shouldn't both variations be considered adjectives? Lastly I think of the word nightmare as a verb also, am I incorrect in thinking this?
I'm done now I hope this question is not a NIGHTMARE (ish) for you. lol

O you fear the force of the wind,
The slash of the rain?
Go face them and fight them,
Be savage again.
Go hungry and cold like the wolf,
Go wade like the crane:
The palms of your hands will thicken,
The skin of your cheek will tan,
You'll grow ragged and weary and swarthy,
But you'll walk like a man!

I was reading this on a message board and this has been bothering me all day.

"Finally, I think you'd find that the persona you have imagined I fit, based on my posts here, is far from the sarcastic a$$hole you think I am"

Now, the people on the message board think of this guy as a total sarcastic jackass.
I'm wondering if im just dumb or did he make a mistake in wording? He seems smart and uses big words all of the time.
Any help would be appreciated.
