Preface: I work at a place that takes ads for various newspapers, we are basically an outsourcing agency. Today my co-worker took a call from a customer who was furious that her ad was running incorrectly. She had placed an ad for designer handbags in the Miami Herald, and called screaming that her ad was misspelled, and causing its lack of success. She claimed that “designer” was spelled totally wrong. Ok. Co-Worker - How was it spelled mam? Lady - “d-e-s-i-g-n-e-r” Co-Worker - umm thats right actually Lady - no its absolutly not, its supposed to be “d-e-z-i-n-e-r” Co-Worker - is that a brand name? Lady - no its how its spelled, cant you get that through your head? Co-Worker - umm no its not, unless its a proper name, its spelled designer. Lady - well you’re clearly not educated, because its spelled deziner Co-worker - M’am im actually in Grad School for English, im pretty sure I know how to spell it… _click_ pwnt! mildly amusing… ---

[font=Arial][size=2][font=Verdana]bwhahahahahah it’s a paradox of sorts, or at least an interesting phenomenon: **unintelligent people are completely unaware that they’re unintelligent** lol. i think i say something similar to that aloud just about… everyday. that along with _‘education is not a replacement for intelligence’_. this statement being directed toward one of my co-workers. below are some examples of her _extensive vocabulary_ and _command of the English language_: supposedly = supposably umbilical cord = unbillable cord acquired taste = required taste primates = primeapes lib **r** ary = libary reimbursed = reinversed all _inclusive_ resort = all _exclusive_ resort 😕 (so… there’s nothing included? lol) especially = expecially this is a _supposedly_ ‘ **educated** woman’? 🤣 those are just a few examples that i can think of off the top of my head and there’s many more where those came from. lol what a joke. :smash2: [/font][/size][/font] ---

> [@JEG](#): > > ok…i missepell alot of things but damn thats just funny. Newman didn’t want to start shit, but I do, damn it!!! 😉 1.) **misspell** - (how ironic is it to misspell that?) 2.) **a lot** - it is a “lot” of something, where lot is the quantity. You could say “I misspell a ton of things,” same effective meaning. I used to get this one wrong, too, but once you realize what you’re saying, it starts to make sense. I won’t go so far as to deal with your missing apostrophe for the contraction of “that is.” I just brought my dog to be neutered, and the post-operative instructions have all sorts of misspellings. One common one: “ect.” instead of “etc.” That one drives me nuts, because you KNOW the person who typed it that way must pronounce it wrong, too. It’s etcetera, not eckcetera. I think this is another case where once you know how to say it properly, you’ll abbreviate it properly. They also spelled “gradually” wrong. At first it seemed like a simple typo, but they spelled it “gragually.” The G isn’t next to the D, so I think they feel that their 2nd G is a soft G, which I suppose would sound like gradually. A girl I work with pronounces this symbol \* as “asterick.” For those who don’t know, it’s spelled out as “asterisk,” and pronounced how it looks. It ends with the word “risk,” not “Rick.” He’s a Mod who may take risks. See how it all comes back to NYSpeed?! ---
