You know what, think you....I've just gotten into the jokes and riddles section and i find them to be funny. They make me laugh or at least make me smile you know? Well i myself does find it super irksome when someone looks at people's microscopic spelling errors. It's not even that serious, we aren't going to win an award or anything for spelling. And besides, anybody and EVERYbody does make common spelling errors....
Keep on with the jokes my friend, keep on...

Well Ploppy pants (By the way, love that name, so funny!), whenever I pick on someone's poor spelling, I do it because their is the simplest way to stop 95% of the spelling mistakes on these boards, it's the spell check button. Why people don't make use of it more, I have no idea, but it helps delivering a joke when people can read it (and therefore sound it out in their heads) with ease. Stumbling over words trying to figure out what someone means, or having to re-read a sentence because the meaning was lost in poor punctuation or spelling just ruins a joke for me.
Personally I get a kick out of 99% of the jokes and posts' on here, but there is 1% that just rub me the wrong way. Usually it's people with really bad spelling or punctuation who make the joke completely unfunny because I cannot grasp what they are trying to say. Some are just offensive and beyond what should have been posted on here.
And you know what drives me bonkers (and yes, before I found this out I did a few of these myself, and so am quilty of the problem) is when people say things like "Where's the Question." So, I am here to enlighten all you folks that put remarks like that down, regardless on whether someone has a comment, Yahoo! Answers Automatically adds one "?" at the end of your title for any question asked. So.... no matter if you put your own ? there, they will add one for free. Please, understand people don't always have to ask questions, if this were the case this jokes & riddles forum would be dead, everyone would be posting things like "what new joke do you have?" Just let it go, some people make statements in their title.
Your posts though.... let me tell you, are great! Haven't seen a bad one yet, so keep them jokes coming, and check out some of mine. (haven't posted many because I don't have many.... but there is one here: *looks down at next line*

do you need a hug???
It's my first time reading the jokes here, but the last few I read most ppl had spelling mistakes, as I am probably sure I have a few here as well...who cares? I spend all day in schoo;l worrying abouit correct spelling so to be honest as long as you get your point across whether spelled correctly or not is unimportant...
I don't believe there are any english teachers here...so don't worry....type, ty'pe O...who cares....
lighten up everyone if this is a problem for you...

More power to you!! Continue telling your jokes, I enjoy reading jokes that make me laugh. Especially when I had a bad day or just because. I'm glad you don't let depressing people get you down. I support you and all the others who bring a little sunshine to this page.

thumbs up and hold your head high hun, i love your jokes.
People who repeatedly complain have an addiction to complaining, why else would the read 'crap' over and over again if they don't find it amusing? Yeah.. the stupidity factor could be to blame..
For the killjoys.. why keep coming back for more if you don't enjoy it...that makes you masochistic or bitter - and desperate for points... or fame. Are you blonde or do you just have blonde roots?

hey i agree Mr Ploppy, your last joke was pants though .....I have posted lots of gripes like this one myself. i told a joke a few weeks back about parking in a disabled bay as i has tourettes. It was a joke but one woman in America told me to go the nearest bridge and jump off and die, I was gobsmacked. Another called me a sick t*wat. I wish they would curl up and you know what, miserable gits. power to your elbow thats what i say. long live jokes and bad spelling.
