Did you know that one of the most commonly mis-spelt words in the dictionary is DEFINITELY?
Do you feel that school/college/university in any way helped you in life, realistically?
Did you go around playing Homer's Meltdown for the streak?
Did you go around playing Grid Runners and Wipeouts for streaks too?
Did you know red number outlines meant super features on Caesar's Palace?

Homer meltdown on £15 streak almost everytime
£25 upgrade once in a blue moon, similar thing happened to big brother but not quite as bad, at least that would still do a double JP run if not the triple.
I struggle with definitely too

I hate morons who can not spell "lose" ie Loose.
Or those who incorrectly use the word "hate".

I hate those hate people too.
Even better than loose is a looser! Have had it typed to me many a time whilst playing online blackjack. Cunts who cost you a nice double because they stand on 14 vs a 7 and give you the 4 instead of the 10 you need for your 11.
FUCKING PRICKS!

My English teacher wrote 'would of' when marking a piece of my work. I thought i'd correct it for a laugh, and she went fucking ballistic at me.
The most annoying example I can come up with is when kids spell the word 'tune' as 'choon'. The same idiots spell 'the' as 'da' and 'this' as 'dis' as it's quicker, so why lengthen a word just for the sake of spelling it incorrectly?
Fucking nauseating. I fear for the kids of today, most of them grow up in shit schools and leave having learned fuck all, and are thus unprepared for the real world and end up getting dragged down by those around them.
I consider myself very lucky in that I was taught to read, write and perform basic math before I even started school, not everyone had that advantage.

The word "Hilar" that I've heard a few times.
It's short for "Hilarious". If that's the case, why not just write "FUNNY".

Hated school and everybody that went there! Used to bunk off and go to the local cafe, noddys nosher, i kid you not, and walk in as turk used to stand on a chair to chase out the "Melon Meter" on the £3s! Classic as he was only about 10 years old and used to fight with his brother when there was an odd £1 left over!
