    Right a lot of you are stating to piss me off with your comprehensive school level education. So as a grammar school alumni, I want to point two things out to you inbred knuckle draggers.

    1. The difference between to and too. It is spelt too (adverb), when it refers to a quantitative. "He is coming too", "There are too many" "It is too far" It is spelt to (proposition), when it refers to a destination "I am going to the shops"

    2. The difference between off and of. I mean they are two different words, simply learn how to use them correctly, it is not "Piss of"

    Hope fully this will drag a few of you out of the gutter.

    Not mine... from de interwebz...


    Eye halve a spelling chequer
    It came with my pea sea
    It plainly marques four my revue
    Miss steaks eye kin knot sea.
    Eye strike a key and type a word
    And weight four it two say
    Weather eye am wrong oar write
    It shows me strait a weigh.
    As soon as a mist ache is maid
    It nose bee fore two long
    And eye can put the error rite
    Its rare lea ever wrong.
    Eye have run this poem threw it
    I am shore your pleased two no
    Its letter perfect awl the weigh
    My chequer tolled me sew.

    Well you own a Mac, it's your own fault. If you had a real computer, I could tell you to change your spell checker from US to UK English

    Zingy are you sure there is no regional setting and you're set on us?


    Also not mine:

    Dear John:
    I want a man who knows what love is all about. You are generous, kind, thoughtful. People who are not like you admit to being useless and inferior. You have ruined me for other men. I yearn for you. I have no feelings whatsoever when we're apart. I can be forever happy--will you let me be yours?

    So it would be "Nobleox, you can **** right off!" Other than "Nobleox, you can **** right of!" I think I get it. :biggrin:

    Spell checkers won't count it as wrong. It is a real word meaning castrated ram.
