Posted July 18, 201312 yr Okay, so, I was just sitting around, riding my car home when I thought about words... and spellcheck. o__o So I was thinking that, instead of that ominous red line beneath the word, the word scolded you for being wrong, like for example: Me: *types in the word "weird" as "wierd"* Then the word says: "What the h*** man! Why would you spell me like that! Me: "but I was just ty..." The Word: NO! YOU LISTEN TO ME! You have got to remember the rule: "i" before "e" except after "c!" Me: "I know but..." The Word: "Now! Listen and repeat after me! "i" before "e" except after "c!"... *keeps on repeating it* Me: Okay! I am done with this s***! *Presses and hold down the power button* The Word: No! you stop that right now mister! You turn your big a... *warbles then dies* Me: *Pauses* "Yeeeeeeeeaaaaaahhhhhhh... I need to go see a psychologist. o__O" ...Yeah, I really don't know what I was thinking... But, please give me your thoughts on this... If, that is, you have anything to say about it... >___< Edited July 18, 201312 yr by OathOblivio

July 19, 201312 yr Note: I before E except after C has more exceptions to the rule than actual words that meet it. As a teaching tool it's been disapproven and isn't taught anymore
July 19, 201312 yr It's been a while since I laughed this hard! You got some pretty good imagination there! Though I must admit I also picture some inanimated objects answering some stuff as well! Maybe we both need a psycologist!
July 19, 201312 yr Don't worry its not like your the only one who talks to themselves,I do,were not alone right ..........?Guys?If it makes you feel better I once had a conversation with myself. Yeah. One me was an evil French dude and the other me was an American bigot. I'm not schizophrenic, though I promise. I was just really really bored.
