Words That The Spell Check Does Not Recognize But Should

[norml]

Dildo for instance,as in Dildo Reilly. And why does it insist that internet should be spelled with all capital letters,or capitalized? I see that Internets is the fourth replacement choice offered. What sort of dunce would think that Internets was a more correct usage than internet?

1. The Internet DOES start with a capital "I"

[norml]

9. What is it,a title,like Mr.Internet? Does everything with a the in front

have to be capitalized? Is that The Rule?

[norml]

12. And what about saying I was on some internet web sites?

Or maybe it is an entity.

2. My spell-checker works. It highlighted "falafel" and suggested "loofah."

13. Well you know I thought it was funny when I typed in dildo and got...

Bill O`Reilly

3. Ummm...

Qat...It means cat :shrug:

[Pithlet]

4. I do like how it wants to change 'freepers' to 'creepers'

But, what is the deal with 'INTERNET'?

[jdots]

5. i don't use it

just like my Franklin Spelling Ace it no fucking idea what i am trying to spell.It needs to be more abstract and subversive.

6. Strange, but the DU spell check stopped working for me when the...

...DU webpage was limited by the administrators during the election. Also, when I post a message now, I have to click everytime to get the message to display, from that bar that appears at the top of the blank screen which says "click here if message display does not reappear". Also, when I take DU polls now, the post comes up for me to click to confirm my vote and when I hit click the screen goes blank and I have to "X" out. Anyone else having these kinds of problems here on DU?

7. I saw one years ago I'll never forget

...about a silent auction for a T-Shit (instead of a t-shirt).

BTA, a t-shit is a t-shirt that tears up within a week :eyes: <just kidding>

8. the DU spellcheck corrected my misspelling of ASSHOLE

I kid you not

[Dr.Phool]

10. Santorum-Sanitarium

Try typing in Rick Santorum. It suggests Sanitarium. Maybe it's working better than we thought.

11. Who knew Shrub would add to the lexicon?

And this is a guy who cannot count the english language as his friend.
