We have become a country over run with completely illiterate people. More evidence of our rapidly decaying American public school system.

LOL - yes, sad but true, but I'm laughing at the quips about the chiwawas
and the fist shots.

Now I have to admit that the chihuahua spelling always makes me need to stop and think before typing it. Even when I type it right it still looks wrong Embarassed

but then I start laughing when I think of Labadoors; docksunds; and retreevers too.....

Cool

I remember laughing about the winged kittens Very Happy I don't ever look at Craigslist so I only see what y'all talk about here but I always get a kick out of it. ( I'm a good speller but I usually have trouble with the easy ones like address or sucessful Embarassed)

I dont see what ur talking about on their. LOL!
Yes, I know it is THERE. LOL!

I hate seeing my ex's daughter type on facebook because she quit highschool and she can't spell the simplest of words. Drives me crazy! If only she would have stayed in school. Sad

Great, just what the world needs more Pugs? If it was still on there, I would email them and tell them about the 52 Pugs we have in our Rescue alone right now. So sad that people can't see the pain, suffering, neglect, and sadness through the dollar bills. Sad

Or, looked at a way that is more correct, evidence of children whose parents don't value an education, have few parenting skills, and have turned the responsibility over to an overburdened, underfunded, under appreciated group of professionals who are wrong no matter what they do or how hard they work, or how right they actually are.( The schools get the kids 6 hours a day, 180 days a year. Parents get the rest. Why are schools responsible for bullying, manners, drinking, child abuse, and the list of other things that should be the responsibility of parents)

Watch out for the Rockweilders. I hear they are protective dogs, too. Maybe they throw rocks at people? Laughing

LMAO goldfish! Sarah, My Rockie (errr Rottie) wasn't a rock thrower when I adopted her at age 11, but I bet when she was younger she was quite the rock thrower. Laughing

Were they pure bread, white bread or whole wheat, Hopers?

Frankly, I blame much of the poor spelling and grammar on texting twitter...as few key strokes as possible thus making it total gibberish..

I had to look up the skinny pigs! They are breed of nearly hairless guinea pigs. I think they are "skinny" because their skin shows, not because they are thin.
