SandBox_Kid Posted August 23, 2007 Posted August 23, 2007 I figured it was time to bring this topic up again. School will be starting sooner for some than for others. THERE are people that don't know how to spell and should be using THEIR spellcheck on a regular basis. THEY'RE the ones that this is directed to. It is also THERE to help people with the proper ways to use the words THERE, THEIR and THEY'RE. Thank you for your support! Spell check won't catch those errors. You need a grammer checker for that.

Don29palms Posted August 23, 2007 Author Posted August 23, 2007 Spell check won't catch those errors. You need a grammer checker for that. Believe it in not, THERE are quite a few people that spell THEIR incorrectly. THEY'RE spelling it thIEr which would be caught with a spell check. Quote

THEY'RE spelling it thIEr which would be caught with a spell check. Yes, but say for instance you are writing a document for work and accidently use the word tit when you intended to use tip. As far as spell check is concerned tit is a valid word and is correctly spelled. This has happened to some. Quote

desertskyz Posted August 23, 2007 Posted August 23, 2007 Is there a point to this tread, cause if there isn't then people are wasting their time. Then everyone could be out driving their rails but, they're still sleeping trying to get over this silly thread. Did I do it right? Quote

aceisback Posted December 23, 2009 Posted December 23, 2009 Bored at work huh Don? Guess ya'll are as bsuy acroos the street as we are over here. Can't believe I came in at 6 only to get off at 10. But get paid for ten hours. Gotta love the Gubment! Quote
desertskyz Posted December 23, 2009 Posted December 23, 2009 (edited) Since I'm a pro at this I will have to step up and say. I suck at the spell check, proof read thing. I am the worst of all. I type you instead your, quite, quit, and quiet always get me every time. I'm good with Their, There, They're but have be caught with your and you're on occasion. Since Sense Cents can be very tricky also. But I really don't GAF, so I'll just keep doing what I do and hope for the best. Stirring Wheel Steering Wheel that was the worst or is it worse of all Edited December 23, 2009 by desertskyz Quote

Quicksilver Posted December 23, 2009 Posted December 23, 2009 This thread makes me laugh. I used to have a boss that didn't know the difference between "breaks" and "brakes." Quote
