AIBU to want to poke people with forks when they

[AliceInUnderpants]

use the non-English word que when they really want to say CUE

It's not a typo. I see it very regularly on forums and it does my fucking head in.

Now, que lots of people telling me IABU

Que=Manuel from Faulty Towers. YANBU

Sparkling that's exactly the only way the word que should be used

I actually read that in Spanish and was very confused for a second

I have seen (on MN) lots of posters using 'que' when they mean 'queue'.

Euphemia I can see the full stops, but not the capital letters?

I want to poke people in the eye when they slag off other people's spelling.

Ohh were you the pedant person who YABU'ed a poster because the had got cue/que confused earlier this evening.

If so YABU and petty and this thread is a TAAT.

Poikjhvcx No, I wasn't. And this thread is about a glaringly obvious spelling error, not a thread.

HTH, hun.

So, it was just a coincidence then.

My bugbear is that pretend crossing out thing, sorry.

So a poster makes a spelling mistake and you decide to start a whole thread about it. You're a wee treat aren't you. Were you the class bully too or do you just do it when you can be anonymous.

Loads of people get wound up by the strike out thing, If it's there as a function people will use it but i don't see the angst.

Poikjhvcx, apparently so, since I still don't know which thread you're referring to. Feel free to check my posting history, if it stops you from sleeping tonight.

Que =Manuel from Faulty Towers.

Yep. Every time i see it.

It's on the AIBU slashing car tires thread and the petty pedant who corrected the OP did so an hour or so ago. Still, if you really didn't see it then fair enough.

Just a bit of peace and love all please

Yes. Also "here here" instead of "hear hear". Even the teachers at my son's school do it.

Hahahah Olivia did someone honestly report this thread? Can I ask what for?

It's 'seen' instead of 'seeing' or 'been' instead of 'being' that puts my teeth on edge.

I didn't report it!

I just don't think anyone should be poking anyone with forks on a Friday night, virtually or otherwise

Peace and love

I didn't say I would, or do. I said I want to

Oh come on MNHQ "poking anyone with forks" is clearly intended to be humorous

🙄😂
