So am I. You will be surprised what 30+ years of practice will do for a dyslexic. Not that I donGÇÖt slip up or make typoGÇÖs occasionally, but when I compar my ability to spell now to where I was when I was in my 20's, I am amazed at the difference.
Some of my funniest stuff though is when I accidentally pick the wrong word from the spell check drop-down, or am subjected to autocorrect. Sometimes random chance can create some funny jokes that way.

And if you knew anything about english, you would know that a lot of **** is useless and unneeded for comprehension. They made stupid rules for stupid reasons that still last today.
Are we at fault because english is, stupid?

heh same the stuff i used to write even two years back is awful :\.
however for me that part of brain is dead or at least not active so i use memory rather than understanding to get by so their is a limit to how much i will improve...its very frustrating when i forget what a five letter word is met to be spelt like :(.
however the people i work with are very forgiving and sometimes its funny when they play decode steadys email

You know they say dyslexic people actually have super brains. They mix up words because their brains go WTF is this stupid **** in front of me.
And the fact that I would have never known you to be dyslexic further proves that point. I read a lot of your stuff, always logical and often times out of the box from what's trending.
Love you Fox.

Muphry's Law can be summarized as any post correcting spelling or grammar criticism will itself contain spelling or grammatical mistakes. While in this instance a factual mistake was made, I believe it qualifies.
Because, that's why.

Homonym
a word pronounced the same as another but differing in meaning, whether spelled the same way or not, as heir and air;
a word that is both a homophone and a homograph, that is, exactly the same as another in sound and spelling but different in meaning, as chase GÇ£to pursueGÇ¥ and chase GÇ£to ornament metal
a word of the same written form as another but of different meaning and usually origin, whether pronounced the same way or not, as bear GÇ£to carry; supportGÇ¥ and bear GÇ£animalGÇ¥ or lead GÇ£to conductGÇ¥ and lead GÇ£metal;GÇ¥ a homograph.
Homophone
a word pronounced the same as another but differing in meaning, whether spelled the same way or not, as heir and air.
a written element that represents the same spoken unit as another, as ks, a homophone of x in English
You're both correct, don't be a douche.
