Is your grammer crap (like mine)? Then this may help...

I may even learn something...And it might stop those spelling/grammar Nazis then sneak in on every thread.

Anything to help improve the standard of writing on here is welcome, but I doubt many will bother to try to correct their faults. I would have thought Bristol's site would have dealt with the "myself" problem, which more and more people seem to get wrong these days.

You wants a spell checker for posting in PH. (It's free for members with more than 20k posts.)

Actually, I lied. It's a free add-on in Firefox.

Is your mis-spelt 'grammer' in the title meant to be ironic?

[ciderminx]

There should be a bullet point for the correct use of anything vs. nothing. For example, ''i aint done nuffink'' instead of ''i didn't do anything.'' It really boils my piss to hear the former on telly or radio.
Or how about ''i aint bin nowhere''

...i could go on, but i wont.

I would like to say yes, but in truth? I forgot to spell-check the title - FAIL.

Here are some more fails

It's not the only spelling error in that site.
