          Also, it's "sig", not "sign".
          No shit, Canadians are notorious for typing things like "HOLLY SHIT".

              Pompous ass!

              Color it however you want Shakespeare we all sell dirty pictures at the end of the day. If you feel we need to make this a scholar club... by all means go right ahead. Meanwhile, I will be closing deals with the commoner.

              If you are that annoyed at the posting habits on a fucking webmaster board maybe you need to take a long look in the mirror and see if you are being honest with yourself about what you do for a living.

              This will never be a community that gives two shits about ANYTHING other than.... what?s that class.....

              YES!!! MONEY!!!! Good work; now get back to your spelling assignment.

              Oh and yes Jeeves I am one of the stupid AMERICAN webmasters who is going to reply.

              Feel like the Mr. Smarty pants you wanted everyone to think you are now???

              Yes, because I know I'm right. Not just about this, but about 100% of things.

              On a board such as this, words are all people have. If people are going to post shit then they might as well post in pictures. If I'm in a business meeting and some guy is speaking like a 5 year old that memorised a few big words from the dictionary, people tend to notice and point things out. Whoever said anything about getting upset? ahahaha. I sit, point and laugh at retards that bash away at the keyboard with frustration, they just don't have the ability to transform their thoughts into words, they'll always be second best.

              Money money blah... I don't know about you, but I'm not being paid to post here. Good business is not done on this board. Settling for sub par anything when there are alternatives available is just stupid, and if you're prepared to do so, then it's time to look at your life and your products and ask yourself if you are second best, or if you are currently #1, then are you prepared to be second best?

              You misunderstand completely, as do a good 99% of Americans/British... too many tabloid newspapers, gossip columns, admiration for the working class Joe Below Average. Just because you understand something in one particular way, it doesn't make it the only way nor does it necessarily make it so. If you give positive reinforcement to a stupid person, he'll come back for more every single time; he'll keep coming back and back until you punch him on the nose, and even then he'll think, "I wish I could still go back but I'll just get punched in the nose again..." It's the same reason why two guys can make a thread that goes on to 250+ replies on this board - even when someone is proved to be wrong, they just can't give up. All you have to do to manipulate the gullible is make them feel good about themselves, they'll follow your lead every single time. Genuinely intelligent people are harder to crack because they ask themselves, "WHY am I doing what I'm doing?"

              Of course, most Americans and Brits have a difficulty in understanding irony, possibly a sign of mental retardation. The most intelligent and enlightened people I've ever spoken to online are Russians, and perhaps more Russians would understand if they weren't too busy scamming.

              Words are a big, sharp dagger - if they weren't, for a start, the government would not ban books and people would not be offended by things they read. Stupid people don't even attempt to juggle words, if they did, they'd end up stabbing themselves in the face.

                      I target alot of keywords on my sites towards spelling errors,
                      You get alot of surfers and sometimes the SE position is easier to nail .

                      one of my sites had #9 on google for " amatuer porn " and was raking in the hits for awhile .
                      "a lot" is 2 words.

                        Here is a word that many mistakenly misuse in conversation.....

                        "irregardless" in substitute for "regardless"

                        I don't think people are stupid for using it but the word "irregardless" should not be used.

                              in fact, there is no such word as irregardless
