      Sometimes using correct spelling and grammar comes off as a little too formal.

      Dedicating 11 hours to something, only to be unable to finish. That grinds my gears.

        I can understand typing in a way that looks more like speech as opposed to correct grammar, but spelling shouldn't be excused for that. Pretty much every system has a spell checker which should eventually help you learn to spell things right.

        Were you planning on listing some words?

          Well when you put it like that, rushy's post should probably be edited to "idiots".
          Unless it's a second language and/or the word their using isn't exactly phonetic, how does one f**k that up unintentionally?

            The importance people place on spelling.
            Capitalism.
            Doctors.
            What passes for healthcare.

                Maybe they have some kind of macro that keeps pressing shift for them automatically?

                  I've thought of that, and that could be true for some people.
                  Others, on the other hand, don't appear to have the intelligence to be able to figure out how to use something like that. lol.

                        How the heck does that pizza one even work? You have to be some kind of jerk face if you're going to cut it in the middle for a slice.

                        ...And it's probably the most messy slice too because of lack of crust and just pure cheese and sauce.

                          perhaps the guy doesn't like the crust

                            But then my lady friend got pissed off I was playing FFR instead of playing her. Then for the rest of the night she played the 'Only want me for my body' card and I didn't get to sleep with blankets that night.
