i hate people who think they're so amazingly intelligent because they can type words correctly. i misspell words all the time and miss them when I post things because I'm not paying that much attention to it. it's not a freakin' essay for school or anything.

sure, good grammar makes you look more intelligent to the people reading your comments, but you could still be as dumb as a stump.

as long as people understand what you're saying, i don't see misspelling and using incorrect grammar as a big deal.

actually, it seems to me that the people who criticize others so heavily are just feeding their own ego because they feel inadequate in real life.

just a thought.

Haha this thread is kinda dumb, (I spliced these together for extra coherency) good thing I posted it into spam, lmao.

But I'm serious(I deleted the "e" you tacked onto the end), post things I've said that you would say are "bad grammar."
Well your grammar is just plain suck in your first post, so I've taken the liberty of correcting everything in it with bold font. It even lacked basic punctuation learned in the first grade

my spelling is fine.. i read at a higher level than my age group so obviously i just don't try to spell...
Yes, your spelling is fine, that's why in your first post you spelled serious with an e. And I can accept that you're lazy when it comes to grammar, it's just habitual for some people to type properly all the time because they were trained that way in school. But why are you actually separating sentences into different lines? I've seen plenty of grammatically lazy bastards, but never have I seen anyone take two phrases in a sentence and split them into two separate lines.

And yes, it is bad. Well, not so much bad as it is a sign of unintelligence. Now I'm not saying you aren't intelligent, but the way you type makes you look like you never even graduated middle school.

Nah, we have lives, we just payed attention in school and like to use proper grammar so we don't look like uneducated morons. And YOU started this topic and asked for people to point out your mistakes, so don't start whining just because people are doing what you asked them too.

I disagree. It isn't hard to spell and type correctly, only requires a bit of attention. It isn't rocket science, seriously.

If everyone just neglected to put a bit of effort into the presentation of what they typed, then what? It certainly suggests intelligence. Even if the person is as thick as two short planks, at least they know basic grammar and spelling.

word?

don't really know how you can have a huge ego that's not in real life or why you would admit to it.

makes you seem a little prissy and conceited to be honest.

^ attention for what? so people online you've never seen before in your life think your intelligent? wasted attention in my opinion.

if you really believe a couple of misspellings determine how intelligent you are, then you're the real idiot, quite frankly.
