Did I say that it did?

Maybe I put it there because it is fun.

Plus it proves you can read misspelled words.

While posting in this thread I probably got more done at work, and got paid more than you will all day.

Though I don’t even know if I’d consider that an accomplishment.

And it’s only 11:30.

I always had heard about the Low I.Q. forums, but never actually checked them out.

Is [this](http://www.nyspeed.com/forums/login.php?do=logout&logouthash=07df0638609e22256c9cd637d08213da) one of them?

Sure, it was kind of funny. And he clearly copy/pasted it. Knowing this, I’m unsure how he still managed to fuck up the grammar.

I believe the original intent of the thread was to “mock” ALL females. Why can’t we “mock” you then?

FYI, the word Mock fucking sucks.

I stopped reading after this, so excuse me if this has been said already.

Perhaps people aren’t correcting you to make themselves feel superior to you. It’s possible they’re hoping that you’ll learn from your mistakes, and save face by not sounding like an idiot at the wrong time. Someday you may think back and be thankful for these corrections. Maybe not.

“ATM machine,” “VIN number.” The redundancy makes people sound ignorant.

“Drive-Thru” annoys me, but it has become the common / accepted spelling. Apparently sign makers chose to shorten “through” for some reason.

I’ve come to the conclusion that most of these mistakes come from reduced literacy. The less often people have to read and write, the less they come in contact with proper spelling and grammar. How many people think “supposably” is a word? Or “irregardless?” I’ve definitely heard people say “for all intensive purposes” or “I could care less.” The latter really annoys me. If you COULD care less, you must have some level of care, but you’re TRYING to imply you don’t care at all, so the correct expression is “I couldn’t care less.”

yeah. i fuck it up sometimes too. i’m not (that) perfect.

i also don’t always capitalize the word “I”.

i don’t mind drive- **thru**

it would probably add millions of dollars in printing cost if every “thru” was originally printed as “through”.

However, threw is a legitimate word, and it’s meaning is NOT the correct one.
