Alexa, play "You made me realise" by My Bloody Valentine

By singleandthankful - 23/02/2013 23:18 - United Kingdom - Beaconsfield

Today, my now ex-boyfriend called me out after I spelt "realised" with an S instead of a Z. It wouldn't have been so bad, if we weren't both British, if he hadn't called me an "illiterate idiot", and if he hadn't muttered "family of morons" when my mum backed me up. FML

Same thing different taste

Underfunded and underappreciated

Today, I got back the essay I wrote about how my country's education system is fucked. At one point, I made a spelling mistake. My teacher wrote a note about it, basically calling me illiterate, and telling me to pay attention in school instead of whining about it. She misspelled "school". FML

It's so annoying when people are arrogant and rude on top of being blatantly wrong...

Er, was this an attempt at sarcasm with the bad grammar? If not prepare for death by grammar Nazis.

It is spelt/spelled with an 's' or 'z' depending on what side of the pond you're on; unless you're that peaceful weirdo we call Canada. Believe it or not though, American is another form of the English language.

I get shit for misspelling stuff from my boyfriend sometimes (never seriously, though). I grew up both in Canada and the U.S. so I wander back and forth with my spelling. If I'm doing academic stuff, I write 'proper' Brit spelling. Text messages? Usually American spelling because my phone autocorrects to it. Same with creative writing, I just automatically revert to American. I guess it's because I read a lot of American books. Your boyfriend needs to chill out. Even those who are good at spelling make mistakes (my screw-up word is 'embarrassed' - I always forget if it's two r's, two s's, both, or neither, when I'm writing by hand).
