Aww, Captain_Obvious was cute. I miss him.
Just so you are all happy, I will work on writing better on here. For all the people that get headaches seeing that I don't capitalise my I's. I do think that if someone gets all stressed out over someone not using perfect writing skills on a messegeboard, they should go see a doctor. A very good one.
Typo on "writingg," "capitalise" is debatable, and don't make the I possessive. Other than that, you're good to go.

I've kept mum until now, but I just have to chime in.
I don't believe anyone is looking for "perfect writing." But showing some rudimentary spelling skills would be nice.
You have spelled the word "message" incorrectly throughout this entire thread. So, I'm guessing that that's probably not a typing error, but rather an egregious spelling error. (One of, well, a GAZLLION.) Now, misspelling the word "egregious" I can understand. But "message?" And you're 16? I shudder to think how you'll do on your SAT's.
That being said, welcome to the boards, and good luck with your musical.
Runs off to go see a "very good" doctor...
"capatilise"
Crimson, if you are 16 you should know hot to spell "capitalize." I'm in 8th grade and I know how to spell a simple word like capitalize. If you misspelled that's what the edit button is for. This is just my opinion but, I think anyone who starts posting here should read some thread's before posting. That way no one one would be posting stuff like "u" and "r."

Yes, i have horrible spelling. I really do. I got a 12% in the spelling section of the practice SAT's. I try to improve on it, but I perfer to do it without the help from spell check. I want to do it on my own. Or I can learn from certain kind of people on messAge boards. So you are all helping me to becoime a better speller. Thanks!

I mean this totally sincerely: That is great that you're trying to improve your spelling, and I really wish you well. Practicing your spelling is really the only way it will improve, though. And I agree, you should try it first without spell-check, but then once you've finished typing, you could use spell-check as a learning tool. Go over all the words you spelled incorrectly and try to remember what the errors were for next time.
Becoz: Like I said, "capitalise" is debatable. In the U.S., we spell it with a Z, but in England and pretty much elsewhere they use an S.
erika: Call me stupid, but I didn't get your joke. Then again, I don't eat meet... er, meat.

Favorite things about this thread:
a) Erika's joke (I am laughing WITH you, dear...)
b) Those that criticize crimson's spelling prowess with major typos in their posts themselves.

Meat is divided into different cuts by the butcher. The best of which are classified as "choice." (Well, the best are "prime," but why quibble?)
Just put "choice meat" or "choice meats" in quotes into google and see all the results.
So, anyway, it was a pun. A very obvious, not terribly funny pun.

erika, I did as you requested and this is what I got:
By the way, BSoBW2, I don't swallow my meat so that doesn't constitute as eating. Technically.
