Stupid Spell Czeckers
Among my many pet peeves: stupid spell checkers. I mean, even a half-witted software program should be able to figure out that I intend "throgh" to be "through". I am a lousy speller at best and rely heavily on these tools to keep me from looking like an ass (a major effort, with my typing skills). So please, folks, let's agree that if something is being held up as a spelling authority, it has more than 2nd grade spelling skills.
