AIBU? Surely it's not hard to check check what you've typed before you post. Just press preview and check for pisstakes before you

Not everyone uses the website. Many people use the mobile apps which don't have that functionality.

Also not everyone cares about typos.

scrufffy · 23/09/2022 22:13

There's no preview function on the app. Hth.

Mischance · 23/09/2022 22:14

Because they are human.

I think it was a poor attempt at a joke

Your thread title requires a question mark.

PinkButtercups · 23/09/2022 22:33

tonightelmowillrise · 23/09/2022 22:35

hilarious 🙄

SalviaOfficinalis · 23/09/2022 22:35

I enjoyed reading a post earlier today advising OP to be the devil’s avocado 😂

Ponderingwindow · 23/09/2022 22:36

Because half the time I post with an error it’s because I bumped the post button by mistake on my phone

iPreferBooks · 23/09/2022 22:36

I always check my posts. However I am also dyslexic amd sometimes something doesn't always catch my eye.

HTH.

Hoardasurass · 23/09/2022 22:38

Yay another ablist thread @MisgenderedPaul has clearly never heard of dyslexia

Caroffee · 23/09/2022 22:39

🤣🤣🤣 Guilty as charged

Iamthewombat · 23/09/2022 22:41

The OP was joking.

Have you got it now? The OP was joking. That is why she/he deliberately substituted ‘pisstakes’ for ‘mistakes’.

BillLius · 23/09/2022 22:44

I read your post and your phone bill will you arrive in your room and you will have a table for you next to the door and the door is unlocked and you can park in the park with your car seat and your would take it a bit if it will take your hours or not your code 👨‍💻 your door bill will yyyyydo with

ChocChipOwl · 23/09/2022 22:44

Jesus Christ.

The level of dense with some posters is astonishing.

Read the op again. It is a JOKE

Arguably not a hysterical joke but a joke nonetheless

Pixiedust1234 · 23/09/2022 22:48

Jokes are supposed to be funny. Maybe thats why nobody is taking it as a joke.

HTH

glowingghost · 23/09/2022 22:48

Also if you make a mistake just ride it out. Don’t then fill up the thread with a million posts like:

*their not there
*you’re not your
*avocado not advocate

etc etc.

It’s so boring.

StarDolphins · 23/09/2022 22:49

Goodness me, it’s embarrassing how people miss the most obvious jokes/piss takes & cone on all serious😂

Mumsnet is definitely 50/50 uptight/lighthearted people!

MisgenderedPaul · 23/09/2022 22:51

Not 50/50. 73/27 at the moment 😂
