I just don’t get it?
This is what I saw today. Instead of “receive”, someone actually wrote, “reseabe”. Um, not a foreigner, might I add, but an English speaking person. This is probably the worst mistake I’ve ever seen. What are some of the worst you’ve seen? (Not talking typos, but true abominations of the language.) Oh yeah, once I saw “arrons” for “errands”. Ugh!

There have been some terrible ones. The first that comes to mind, however, is the “name” Analeigh I saw mentioned on here earlier. That’s right … literally a misspelling of the word anally. LMBO What’s even funnier, it was listed as an example of a “time-tested” classic name choice! 😉
I know that’s not exactly what you had in mind, but I just found that even more horrid than many of the simple word misspellings I’ve seen recently.
And of course, there’s always “fack!” ROFL

I received this counseling once from a squad leader. For why chou no chine your boots today.
Why didn’t you shine you boots today is what he meant. The squad leader was from the Dominican Republic. He literally translated everything from spanish to english. It was very frustrating.

Let’s see – I knew someone who worked in a library and was asked where the ‘YOU-nabridged’ dictionary was.
Just reading some of the questions on here can make me want to rip my hair out.

“Prolly” is one of the worst, and unfortunately quite common.
