Did you hear the one about a dyslexic who walks into a bra.....

Aside from the bad spelling/grammar, what gets my goat is the x instead of a full stop and the word 'hun' used gratuitously.

What do the Germans have to do with anything?

Bad spelling and grammar is a pet hate, although on here I have to calm my rage because if I point it out, you get everyone pouncing with the 'that's not helpful!' comments.

It is helpful, in that it shows them they need to go back to school.

I have to sit on my hands!

You don't even have to go back to school (I didn't learn to spell there). Words are all around us, it's just about actually taking a little notice of how things are spelt. One of the best things to do is put the subtitles/closed captioning on the telly - that's pretty much how I learnt to spell.

I went into a motor showroom near my house to tell them that the lettering they were putting up (hadn't been finished) was wrong. They put 'loose money'.

It was my job to create artwork for a company for things like that, so that's why it annoyed me. It doesn't annoy me so much on forums as some people haven't had the education others have had. I guess I don't like putting people down whereas some people relish it.
