"Plenty but I try not to judge thick fingers or heads"
Autocorrect can be a pane in the arse as well. Especially when it corrects up to words at a time. |

Typos can be hilarious as can thick fingers. As for judgment, we're not making any in this thread - people may spell English words poorly for many reasons. This thread is just a peek at words.
Psssst I'm sure those people who may not have a talent for spelling, have much worthier talents  |

I still got there,

"I once asked my brother what time we were going fisting...bloody autocorrect
Fishing bro Fishing  "
In this lifestyle I'm sure many of our custom dictionaries have words that do not grace those of the wider world. |

"I can live with there, they're and their but seeing ladys = arghhhhh.

Have you got a spelling bee in your bonnet?

I've found that mainly with non-native English speakers. |

It really doesn't bother me,firstly because I am not in a exam! Secondly I speak 5 different languages and just English isn't my first language ! I do try my best but who is in another side doesn't realise the effort! But even in my mother tongue I do understand people ,maybe people didn't had the opportunity I had to study or they left school early! The most important thing is that we try to communicate without fear of the spelling police.thankyou |

My FWB is terrible for it, can't understand his messages at all sometimes. Not sure if he can't spell/write very well or if it's just his phone autocorrect and small keyboard x |

They are just discussing what irritates them about the words, not the people. It's not personal and not spelling police like other threads slagging the people off. There's a difference. |

I was on my way to meet a lady many years ago and texted her - intending to say "I can't wait to lick your pussy".
My phone managed to send the message "I can't wait to kick your puppy"...!!
As it happened, she did have a dog too. Although hardly a puppy.
Thankfully I realised as the message sent, and corrected it before her passion turned to anger. And pussy-licking duly occurred with no canine violence involved.

"Loose when they mean lose
Dominate when they mean dominant.
Proffesional or proffessional.
Of when they mean have, (should of, could of)"
They are sadly pretty common and get from me, then I've forgotten about them  |

Gawjus. Now really with auto spell check or voice spell check on every phone, there's really no need to spell gorgeous wrong! Also any kind of chav talk makes me cringe. |

"tongue - "
How would you spell that then?
Cloths for clothes.
Discrete / discreet confusion.
But my current number one gripe is 'rediculous' instead of ridiculous grrrrrrr

I hate when people spell my last name wrong...it's a really simple name so it drives me crazy.
Although my parent spelt my middle name wrong on my birth certificate so Microsoft Word always autocorrects it to the correct, yet incorrect, spelling |

I try not to judge tbh as there may be a number of reasons as to why someone cannot spell a certain word correctly... |
