Hold on, I've got an idea.........
Discussion
I've got a really good idea. I'd like to assemble a crack squad of dictionary wavers. Volunteers please? We'll do something really, really interesting which will seem like nirvana compared to our daily mind numbing and tedious jobs.
Let's devote all of our free time to reading every single thread. Rather than adding something useful, we'll add absolutely
all content aside from making a point of picking up spooling and. grammar errors.
People will spend hours composing posts in case they get flamed for not having the English skills of the bard. Then people will stop posting.
That will leave about 4 people to pick on each other as they discuss the merits, or lack of, of the modern educational system, spelling and grammar.
chat, banter and talking about everyday stuff. It's far more interesting to be pedants and w*nkers.
...and I couldn't give a xxxx if this contains errors you pedantic t

I don't have a problem with people picking up on spelling and grammar although I've not really been picked on (yet) so I probably don't fully understand see your point of view. At the end of the day if you make stupid spelling mistakes and someones corrects you, what's the harm, it could even help you in your job and stop you looking an arse when emailing someone or whatever.

cos... this place is about fun, NOT pedantry. i just dont see the merit in the constant 'ooo ooo look! you made a spelling mistake!' comments. by its nature this place is fast moving, and as such you have to think fast and type fast. its only natural that once in a while the odd moosesteak will creep in. but seriously, who
cares? if you make the point with one too many 'f's wheres the harm? tee-up

And breathe...
You can't possibly describe yourself as a grumpy old man when you generously award the phrase 'careful on the way out' with no fewer than
4 rofl's, 2 hehe's and a big grin.
I'd love some of whatever you smoke
