loosing benefits

tobykim

I find this appalling that someone has come on here to ask for help and the thread turns into a bickering match yet again. You should remember that the OP has asked a genuine question and is most probably worried out of her mind due to the state of her husband's health and how she is going to manage. I only hope you are never in the same position or maybe it would make you a bit more charitable.
You should be ashamed

Thanks i am genuinely ashamed:rolleyes:

What bickering?? Where?? Loopy girls comment to me contained 1 of these It was a light hearted comment, no bickering DMG's comment was just stating that there were more important things for the O.P to worry about than a spelling mistake. I replied and agreed

Some people take things waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay too seriously, chill out and relax

Everyone seems to like being wrapped in cotton wool on this forum. Scared to breathe in here sometimes without upsetting someone.

I wish the O.P and her husband all the best

Sorry, below is not a useful reply to your question,

Can i point out the obvious spelling mistake that you have made in your thread title?

Sorry, loosing drives me nuts:rotfl:

The 4 letter version of the word lose means you have lost something, the 5 letter version of the word loose means you have slackened something off or you have let loose an animal.

I know this is not an English lesson, but they are 2 totally different words;)

Sorry, i know its petty:rotfl:

I have mixed feelings on this one.

On the one hand I agree that spelling and grammar mistakes can be a bit of a pain. I would add I am not perfect either.

On the other hand if this is pointed out by someone who often makes spelling mistakes and errors in grammar that is a bigger pain.

I do not think you are sad enough to go through all of my 1072 posts or is it each and every 1 of my posts:rolleyes: but i would like you to prove to me 'often';)

Granted i may make a spelling mistake now and again but to use the term often, i find :rotfl:

You can correct words like im and dont etc, but that is laziness rather than spelling, punctuation. I would not do that in anything important documentation wise.

Grammar can come down to wife and i rather than me and the wife but that's a total different ball game. Grammar does not wind people up on internet forum writing, simple spelling mistakes do though, ie those of 4 and 5 letter very common words;)

I think you'll find my spelling is very good on here;) You can go through the 1072 posts if you like, you'll probably find 1 or 2 granted, but to use the term often:rotfl: :T :rolleyes:

I cannot be bothered to go through all the posts you suggest but it would not give a clear picture anyway as you have deleted so many in the past. I stand by my comments.

Because i delete posts that have spelling mistakes in rather than editing them:rolleyes:

Good god:eek:

Edited to add instead of creating another post...

I think we are getting a bit carried away now, i am well aware lose/loose is a very common mistake hence why i pointed it out. Google search reveals

Anyway, back to the O.P question.........

Mitchaa, I'm sure I speak for many people here - GO AWAY! Your selfish comments are uncalled for, the OP needed help and what did you give her? A lesson in spelling. How disgusting, you get more selfish and self-obsessed each day. Leave this thread in peace.

OP, I'm sorry about mitchaa, he is generally a rude and arrogant benefits basher, please ignore him, there are some very helpful and knowlegble people on here, and I'm sure they will be along to help.

Yes I am bored with your childish sarcasm so it is best if we stop here.

I am sorry OP for this but I had the urge to reply to mitchaa for the reasons covered by septemberblues excellent post above.

Oh and check post number 11 and see who has thanked me O.P has obviously taken it in a good light hearted manner
