MMM. Interesting question with errors in spelling. Spell checkers are no answer for understanding a language. Grammar is one thing, but basic language skills another. One reason maybe that not everyone can type or be bothered.

Umm that was a mistake made to test us all. I don't think i will believe that I think that you need to stop all the moaning and worry about things in life that are more important so please stop preaching.
Oh and for the record spell check does not always pick up on all the words.
Just one more thing where are the capitol I's that is a very basic part of spelling i was taught when i was 5
Some people also write with poor grammar as they do not have the education you so obviously have and also a lot of people also write this way to save time.
Please feel free to pick my spelling and grammar to pieces

Because a large proportion of the population doesn't read very much any more. Spell checker tend to be very American biased, since they produce the software. Americans cannot speak English or punctuate very well either. If you think its just a giggle then try marking exam papers!!!!! Some people even try to write essays in text speak. One could even consider the lack of personal standards, but that's another question altogether.

Why? Apparent has ONE R. The comma after grammar, should be either a semi colon or a full stop followed by a capital letter.
The I should be a capital also
... and YET there are still errors.

Who are you the Spelling Police?Take a good look at your own use, or rather lack of, punctuation. It is also quite APPARENT that you can't spell yourself, don't pretend you did it deliberately. The word hypocrite springs to mind.

Seriously, if you are going to criticise other people's spelling and grammar, at least make the effort to get your own right.

I take it dyslexic people offend you. There are also people out there that missed out on some of their education because of health problems . Whats your excuse for being so rude ? are you a teacher? do you like to nit pick ? are you sad?

Under 25's (on average) aren't taught to spell anymore, they don't emphasise on it as they used too...Why do they need too when they use a spell checker (sometimes)
