It does but some people aren't witty to come back with anything so they just point out a grammer mistake and think they got em. On message boards, who cares. Now for work, school, real world sure it does.

I agree Fab. I think its amusing when people make it a big deal to point out mistakes on a message board. With that being said its nice to see COA getting pwned again. hahahaaaaa

Really, your ID was the most insignificant part of the post. Its about how ppl interpret bad grammar/spelling. I did typo ur ID because you are irrelevant here. I apologize for not caring enough to actually see how you spell your Uncle jacks name.

Grammatical and punctuation mistakes are acceptable on message boards, it's just laziness that some people have problems with, and yes there is a difference.

I don't really care about grammar on message boards usually but just for this thread, and for some lolz of course, "Capitalized" wouldn't be capitalized in your sentence.

For those of you who have children with learning disabilities you understand the difficulties.
Other of you thinks that your shit doesn’t stink because you have some sheep skin degree that makes you superior over others.
Some others have yet learned that those extra advanced studies you have taken on being a ignore pencil dick ego asshole has not advance you they only add to your ignorance.

When I was in school the term learning disables was not even a notion and the word dyslexia was even created. Work study program was an everyday event depending on how much food mom had that month for the family. Missing classes to work picking berries, pumping gas or cleaning grease traps was honorable reason not to be educated.
I hold a Bachlor Degree in to area of studies, successful in my career and achieved many goals in my life time. Can I spell or have good grammar ...no but I know what I have accomplish and that is all that matter...

Dyslexia is a learning disability that can often be devastating if untreated. People who suffer from dyslexia primarily have trouble with written language, both reading, spelling and writing. Despite having this affliction, many people overcome it to lead normal and successful lives. Well known people who suffered (or were thought to suffer) from dyslexia, some of whom will definitely surprise you.
