Mi Speal Chequer Doos Nut Werk

spellcheck

I like to write, I often get so caught up in the writing process that I type at the speed of J-Lo on her way to a big ass competition. The problem with this is that there are times when some grammatical and spelling based errors can slip through my net of perfection.

So I started using an online spell checker. Now all my problems are solved… right???

Not quite! Check out this poem about my spell checker:

Eye halve a spelling chequer

It came with my pea sea

It plainly marques four my revue

Miss steaks eye kin knot sea.

Eye strike a key and type a word

And weight four it two say

Weather eye am wrong oar write

It shows me strait a weigh.

As soon as a mist ache is maid

It nose bee fore two long

And eye can put the error rite

Its rarely ever wrong.

Eye have run this poem threw it

I am shore your pleased two no

Its letter perfect in it’s weigh

My chequer tolled me sew.

Amazingly, my spell checker says this poem is perfect, so there is a lesson here… a moral to this story that we all must heed: DON’T WRITE STUPID POEMS! ;-)

    O_o Hehe, it is called a “spell checker,” so I guess it only checks for spelling?

    Very valuable lesson, indeed. *nod head in agreement*

    Spell checker never work right! You can use the wrong words and it will recognize them as correct.

    (Now.. I am still waiting to find out what I have in common with the other 25 bloggers on that list below!)

    Spell checkers just do what they’re supposed to do, I guess.

    Why would you want a spell checker that does not only check your spelling but also waters your cactus and eats up all your fricken cookies? You might of course appreciate the watering stuff, but that’s another story, isn’t it?

    Good point, but it was a spoof post to be honest, just a bit of fun.

    Thanks for your comments.
