to think that correcting someone's spelling/grammar etc on a thread is actually quite petty and pathetic?

[wannaBe]

Really what does it matter?

1 - Desperate weariness and discontent?
2 The act of defacing or defaming a religious object, is ......
3 - A period of revival, perhaps in art or literature?

And oerhaps the hardest,

Not really an issue though, as it is a transliteration from Arabic.

Thedevilwearsprimark, your correction of Wannabe did interrupt the flow of a pretty emotional thread. There's a time and a place.
I did correct someone once but they were slagging off my profession at the time. I was being petty

ahem - unfitmother - but this is now a happy spelling bee thread yu wouldn't want to interrupt, would you?

unfitmother - think of some hard spellings and give us a clue!

StealthPolarBear -by agreeing with OP you demonstrably think "correcting someone's spelling/grammar etc on a thread is actually quite petty and pathetic"Thus we agree so pull yer tongue back in, has been sticking out since 15:44:26. must be getting Sore

Wannabe- saw the post in question. Thought it was rather pathetic. Which is what I tend to think when someone corrects spelling in a point scoring exercise. Whatever the circumstances.

Do you have a special keyboard? I'm sure if I tried to type without looking at all I could end up one key out for the entire thing...

eww whag gottshnunny?

lol, have an alcoholic drink soothe yer odematous tongue. live wildly be a bad spelerr . ababndon craggy island pedants corner come join the vibrant world of erattic spelling

This thread brings back memories...

was much funnier when someone on here called it "psuedocream"

I only ever correct my own.

Unless I'm in Pedants' Corner, of course.
