Recently a 13-year-old Hamilton boy was eliminated at a US spelling bee after he stumbled over a meniscus.

To insure yourself against meeting a similar tragic end, take note of the following.

  • In England, the weather is either Sunni or Shi'ite. Meanwhile, we discuss whether or not Christianity is as bad as Islam.
  • The NIOF principle is one of the central tenets of libertarianism. Tenants pay rent.
  • The plural of 'scarf' is 'scarves'. The singular of 'thieves' is 'thief'.
  • A suite is lounge furniture. A suit is Clubs, Diamonds, Hearts, Spades, or something Elijah Lineberry wears.

Etc.

Learn to goddamn spell.

Though the democrates have made thing worse this recession is on the republicans heads. If they hadn't acted like democrates you could blame the democrates but they did so you can't. Whats worse is with the republicains acting like democrates the democrates have been pushed further to the economic left.

Try to count the spelling/grammar/logic errors...
