What really gets me is how someone can have so many misspelled words--nearly everything that you can enter text on nowadays has a spellchecker, including this box here that I'm writing in now! Do these authors ignore the flags for misspelled words? Do they turn the spellchecker off? Are they too lazy to look up the correct spelling for the words flagged by the spellchecker? What?
Actually, the box you type in on MR has no spellchecker. That's built into your web browser.
