Yesterday, my browser updated me with an in line spell checker.
Those who have suffered lo these many years with my post modernist attitude toward spelling, will, I suppose, suffer no more.
But it makes me feel somewhat dishonest. While I do sometimes correct the most egregious spelling errors and typos, mostly I have left them in so you get a better idea of who I am.
Now the red squiggly lines make me feel obligated to correct myself. And I feel a little pretentious now.
There will still be the odd typo to titter over though.
I feel positively bourgeois.

Postmodernist is one word. And it's "bourguignon" not "bourgeois."

Maybe it won't be so bad, after all.
Thanks!

Maybe your spellchecker should also appolloggizze for not extending to thread titles?

I can't speak for the thread title, but I'm pretty sure that it, like my own "mistake" was a joke.
Irregardless, you guys are a couplet of pendants.

Even though my spellchecker ok'ed your sentence, I still can't figure out what it means. I'm asking for my money back.
