Mumsnet things that make me not to want to help. Or even engage…

“His hobby” “Person A and person B” Or even worse “Person A-let’s call them Sid”

I've just used the strikethrough in my post above yours.

I'll go and sit on the naughty step!

Exactly! Do people literally give a ‘Hammer horror’ scream right in their face while still talking?

No. It affects more than spelling.

I’m dyslexic and have been called thick and lazy in this website for minor mistakes, I struggle massively getting my words in order, remembering grammar rules etc and now I have severe rheumatoid arthritis that affects hand movement and even though I spend a lot of time checking for errors to avoid looking thick or lazy, I miss some and there’s a certain type of person who takes delight in taking a spotlight and announcing in the thread how lazy and think they think someone is.

I often tie myself in knots when writing messages or posts and before I know it, I’ve spent an hour typing something someone else would have had done in five mins.

I wish it only affected spelling.
