Because no one becomes a better speller because you point it out to them? Because it usually only serves to indicate you know the right answer, because they clearly don't care what the right answer is, or they'd have paid attention to the red squiggly lines in their text entry box.
Generally you know who's open to typo correction. Those people? Not it. That's just an exercise in appearing smarter than thou.
I finally got my new contract for next year. Same salary as this year, because there's a university-wide salary freeze, but it's official now. Well, I've signed it, and I will bring it down to the office in a few minutes, once my office hours are over.
You have a point, ita. And what I said was really obnoxious to those of us for whom spelling just does not come easy. I'm sorry. I know it isn't a matter of laziness or not caring. It was rather ass-hat-ish of me to say it.
What a relief, Hil. I know that has been a big worry for a while now.
The one between Daniel and Lindsay made ms laugh a lot. I know it was obnoxious but omg.
I may need to start using "Spellcheck urself b4 u wreck urself."
Did you guys see today's "Rose is Rose"? [link]
That really needs to be a tag.
I really need to get my butt out of bed and start grading papers.

I actually LOLed.(or technically LedOL).
A wee mousy died in my house last night. So sad.
This cute little beasty ran around the living room and my bedroom for a couple of hours (to total obliviousness from Bartleby) and I fretted about what to do about it.
I do NOT want vermin in my house, but I can't kill things.
Seriously, I wince over killing a bug.
I went down to report the sighting to my landlord and he offered me glue traps. No frickin' way, pal. I acknowledged the price to be paid for my wimpiness and tried to brainstorm other options.
I came upstairs and went to turn on my computer...the teeny critter had laid down right under the cpu.
No cause of death known. But, I can say that he did not look depressed the last time I saw him.
