lazy fucking typos

AIBU to be irritated by posters who make numerous typos and then have the audacity to apologise and say things like "oooooh I am so cross at this my spelling and grammar has gone by the board".
For fucks sake proof read prior to posting. It isn't that difficult.

I wonder if 'fucks' should have had an apostrophe?

I hate people not putting capital letters at the start of a thread title.

olderyetwider · 10/12/2010 14:05

Definite need for apostrophe in 'fucks'

For fuck's sake

Fuck-wit.

Your grammar is rotten OP!

GypsyMoth · 10/12/2010 14:12

MissB75 · 10/12/2010 14:12

Typo's happen, they don't really matter but plain ignorance of the English language does matter.

However if you're happy to be known as a Terry then so be it I'm just glad I'm not your children!

ShanahansRevenge · 10/12/2010 14:13

"Lazy fucking typos"

Are they really lazy? And do they fuck?

UnquietDad · 10/12/2010 14:13
