Try moving your lips and reading out loud, and the meaning will be much clearer than looking everything up at Dictionary dot com.... You're a bit of an abrasive ****, ain't you Jack? I never react well to spelling cops... So yes! I notice you ain't so full of sugar plums either... Well - then learn to spell when you're posting in public forums and you won't suffer the heartburn of people correcting you. Well, learn that public forums are not second grade spelling contests. If you had trouble figuring out the meaning of the sentence that gave the other guy so much trouble, then there is little hope for you in the public forums. Oh - by the way, I didn't have to look it up on Dictionary.com - apparently you should have. Why? I doubt anyone that spent more than a day in the public forums had trouble understanding what was meant. I also doubt anyone thinks I, or anyone else posting, doesn't know the difference between hall and haul. I appreciate the sanctimonious attitudes of the spell cops but they are seldom to never needed on a public forum. As a matter of fact, the spell cops generally rear their ugly little heads when they have nothing left other than an ad hominem attack. Wait a minute! My dear departed Mum was a spell and grammar cop. She'd whack me upside the head when I strayed from her standards. :-) |

My dear departed Mum was a spell and grammar cop. She'd whack me upside the head when I strayed from her standards. :-) But did she haunt the public forums? If she did, shame on her. Her time would have been much better spent preaching correct message format and editing methods than harassing adults for spelling and typing mishaps. Besides, when your Mum corrected your spelling or grammar she was teaching you because she wanted you to be successful, not mounting an ad hominem attack. Major difference. -- Jack Using FREE News Server: http://Motzarella.org http://jbstein.com |

wisdom...: Why? I doubt anyone that spent more than a day in the public forums had trouble understanding what was meant. I also doubt anyone thinks I, or anyone else posting, doesn't know the difference between hall and haul. I think it's just obvious you don't know how to spell "haul".

As a matter of fact, the spell cops generally rear their ugly little heads when they have nothing left other than an ad hominem attack. Jack - you present the classic usenet self-absorbed loser. A poor attempt at escaping your own mis-steps. Recall - it was you who threw out the first ad hominem attack after a rather light comment on your misuse of the word "hall". Of course everyone could figure out what you meant - as well, everyone could see that you did not know the proper spelling of "haul". You exposing your panties in a usenet forum does not require that everyone else accomodate you. -- -Mike- |

As a matter of fact, the spell cops generally rear their ugly little heads when they have nothing left other than an ad hominem attack. Jack - you present the classic usenet self-absorbed loser. A poor attempt at escaping your own mis-steps. Typing "hall" vs "haul" is certainly a mis-step, but it's the type of error common in usenet and insignificant. Recall - it was you who threw out the first ad hominem attack after a rather light comment on your misuse of the word "hall". You seem confused on the meaning of "first" as well as ad hominem, all in one sentence. Recall, you were the first one to respond to this, after 3 other people responded... makes sense. Did you know I was the first one to complain about spell cops on usenet, after 4 million others, that is. Did you know Buzz Aldrin was the FIRST man on the moon... just after Neil Armstrong? Of course everyone could figure out what you meant - as well, Of course they could, so pointing out something so silly that had nothing to do with the argument presented was classic usenet drivel and the resulting banter one of the things that makes usenet fun for those choosing to participating in the frivolity. everyone could see that you did not know the proper spelling of "haul". Really? How could "everyone" know that? There are a number of reasons one might type "hall" when one meant to type "haul" in a usenet message, and not knowing how to spell the word is at the very bottom of the list. You exposing your panties in a usenet forum does not require that everyone else accomodate you. If you think spelling "haul" instead of "hall" or protesting spell cops in a public forum is exposing one's panties, you have a long road ahead of you on usenet... -- Jack Using FREE News Server: http://Motzarella.org http://jbstein.com |

If it is so insignificant, why get in a flap about it, Jack? The member was only making an attempt to help you become a better speller. You did it twice in the same paragraph, Jack. This wasn't inadvertent, you really didn't know how spell it. Which, in itself is amazing as you must have seen multiples of thousands of U-HAUL trucks and trailers in your life. That didn't register so I doubt anything anybody writes in here is going to register.

Really? How could "everyone" know that? Mike said that everyone could 'see' it, not 'know' it, Jack. Stop messing with the words others spoke/wrote. We already have a couple of members here who specialize in that. You exposing your panties in a usenet forum does not require that everyone else accomodate you. If you think spelling "haul" instead of "hall" or protesting spell cops in a public forum is exposing one's panties, you have a long road ahead of you on usenet... We now know Jack wears panties. He just denies exposing them. Soooo... next time, Jack, when somebody makes a light-weight bit of fun at an obvious fukkup, laugh it off and thank the gentleman for the assistance. Be a mensch. Keep it ****ing classy, okay? |

Perhaps you need to visit Dictionary.com... Typing "hall" vs "haul" is certainly a mis-step, but it's the type of error common in usenet and insignificant. If it is so insignificant, why get in a flap about it, Jack? \ I have no problem with the error, it's meaningless. My flap is about disingenuous spell cops. Really, I don't even have a problem with them, I enjoy them providing me with entertainment. Think how much I enjoyed you incorrectly correcting my spelling of Baloney? The member was only making an attempt to help you become a better speller. You did it twice in the same paragraph, Jack. This wasn't inadvertent, you really didn't know how spell it. Again, Baloney! Which, in itself is amazing as you must have seen multiples of thousands of U-HAUL trucks and trailers in your life. That didn't register so I doubt anything anybody writes in here is going to register. Not true. Even those that can't figure out first from second, or baloney from bologna occasionally say something worth while, and on that rare occasion, I'm here for ya. Of course they could, so pointing out something so silly that had nothing to do with the argument presented was classic usenet drivel and the resulting banter one of the things that makes usenet fun for those choosing to participating in the frivolity. everyone could see that you did not know the proper spelling of "haul".

If you think spelling "haul" instead of "hall" or protesting spell cops in a public forum is exposing one's panties, you have a long road ahead of you on usenet... We now know Jack wears panties. He just denies exposing them. Just like you "know" how to spell baloney! Soooo... next time, Jack, when somebody makes a light-weight bit of fun at an obvious fukkup, laugh it off and thank the gentleman for the assistance. And next time I enjoy making a light weight bit of fun at an ad hominem spell cop attack, thank me for the entertainment, rather than getting your panties in a bunch. Be a mensch. Keep it ****ing classy, okay? OK, so, let me point out that soooo is not a word, nor is fukkup! So, everyone now can see that you don't know how to spell. -- Jack Using FREE News Server: http://Motzarella.org http://jbstein.com |

You need to look up the definition of ad hominem. You are so far off the mark that you're beyond amusing, to downright funny. -- -Mike- |
