use spell-check

9/6/01
Use spell-check. Is it that hard? If you're too lazy to even move your arm to the mouse, I can tell you that F7 will run the spell-check for you, easy as pie. Don't you love pie? Yes, you do. So go and make the things that you post for everyone else to see look nice!
     The first thing I ask myself when I see someone who can't spell, or punctuate, or otherwise make a complete, correct composition, is "And how long have they been reading, writing, and speaking English, again?" Hmm. Sixteen years, you say? More? How can you spend all that time immersed in a language and not know where to put a comma, or how to spell "through?" How can someone expect to do well in a new career if the first thing a prospective employer sees is their resumé, and it's full of mistakes? Ridiculous. There's no excuse for not knowing your own language.
     Forget all that lame "I'd buy the world a puppy!" crap. I'd buy the world a grammar book.
