I hate bad spellers

I just cant stand when people constantly make spelling errors, or can't take the time to proof-read what they have written. I don't know, I think it has to do with the fact that I am a decent speller, and used to murk spelling bees when I was a little kid, but I think it makes the person sound like a total tool when they use numbers in place of words, or spell the most obvious words wrong.
My girlfriend is like this. She writes "relesonship" ITS FUCKING RELATIONSHIP WHORE.

I hate it when people use commas. When they should use peroids. Instead of long run on sentences, that go on forever.

The only actualy typo there is "cant". Which, to be fair, doesn't show up in spell check (as cant is in fact a word) and is easy to miss when doing a quick proof-read.
Like it or not, "they" is a legitimate gender-neutral singular pronoun with which to reference the subject "person" in that sentence. The 'improper' conjugations you highlighted are correct for the completely legitimate way that he wrote the sentence. Replacing "they" with "he or she" in a gender-neutral context just makes the sentence sound clunky and hyper-aware of being politically correct.

Some people are just horrible at spelling... I think the education system failed a lot of them.
I have a friend who can't' spell simple words. I'm not going to judge him for it though - it is what it is.

And the Disney channel
You'll rarely see me misspell a word... ever.
I even properly punctuate my "Southern-isms" because I type how I talk.
Ever since about second grade I started being really obsessive about spelling and grammar. Especially growing up around the time of "Hooked on Phonics" because that shit FUCKS royally with one's ability to spell.
However, I am usually too lazy to bother with the shift key.
I seriously blame "Hooked on Phonics" and our parents' generation's inability to spell also.

I find it quite funny how people have to spellcheck everytime they post, i don't think i've ever used it and no one should have to as adults. Spelling doesn't really get to me though unless literally can't comprehend what they're trying to say. : /
Hope i didn't spell anything wrong haha, i tried r33l hard..
