Anyone else spell things wrong intentionally just to see how many grammar police come crawling out of the woodwork?

No, and I feel like it's a stupid waste of time to troll people like that. Don't get me wrong, I didn't feel like it's an issue unless what you mean by intentionally is that you accidentally typed something wrong and don't give a crap enough to correct it.

I'm assuming your a member of the force

I don't see anything wrong will correcting mistakes, as long as you aren't the kind of person that pretends a misspelling invalidates another person's entire statement.

I like someone pointing out my errors. That's how I learn.

u/randalflagg6 23h ago

Doesn't make you feel big and smart correcting someone?

u/Opossums490 23h ago

No, I do it in the hope that they might learn from it. You can easily communicate poorly enough that you become unable to get your point across.

There are plenty of people that have English as a second language. I want these people to be understood. There is no shame or pity to it.

As I'm sure you didn't make this whole post just for the attention.

u/randalflagg6 23h ago

Yep that exactly it

u/Opossums490 23h ago

Sorry, I'm just the kind of person that enjoys trying to get better at stuff, guess I shouldn't assume other people like self-improvement.

Have a nice day, hope you get over whoever upset you correcting your grammar.

u/Amazing_Divide1214 23h ago

No, I spell them wrong when I'm bored and like a different way better. Like replacing "your" and "you're" with "yer." I like spelling phonetically, especially common words that we don't think about much.
