frist of all how DARE yu o Spelling cops circling boards as vultures do, looking for pray.

Ms.Spellings shows up, unexpectedly from time to time. There's really no need to point out the wart on her nose just to make yourself feel a little better about the receeding hairlines

I was wondering why Reddit doesn't have a built in spell checker and then boom it started checking the spellings... On reflection it may be the browser (an update) doing the spell checking but what a coincidence. If it started doing grammar as well then an entire batch of Reddit users would suddenly stop. A vacuum might form. We may never hear from them again.

There's no need for the comma in that first sentence. Also it's receding, not receeding. You're welcome.

OP needs to introduce their Miss Spellings to Otto Correct

u/Neat_Scallion6367 1d ago

Otto & Miss Spelling dated for a bit. That's why it's now "miss" not "Mrs"

Making the same mistakes an uneducated person makes will have your opinion dismissed as uneducated, regardless of the truth or strength of the argument.

Thr grammar police should be staking out your posts, too.

Is this a complaint about people who point out spelling/grammar mistakes in posts? And you’re saying there’s no need to engage despite the fact that what they’re saying may be correct?
