"THey won't listen"

As a dyslexic person, it doesn't matter if you tied me up and subjected me to water torture which I'm sure some of you would enjoy I still wouldn't "get" huge amounts of spelling and grammar.

And you are obviously aware there's a Pedents corner, what aren't you using it, you rebel you.
