Thanks, spellcheck

By fuckspellcheck - This FML is from back in 2009 but it's good stuff - United States

Today, I realized the senior thesis I turned in last week uses the word "asses" instead of "assess" 17 times. FML

To get back at my ex for cheating on me, I changed her auto-correct to change the word "an" to "buttsex" and the word "of" to "*****". She didn't notice til after she got her first paper back

I'm going to go ahead and say that you deserved it. One time is a careless typo. Seventeen times means you didn't know how to spell the word, which you clearly should at your age.

You know your teach my not even mind. Well if you are a bad student. My English 2 teacher actually told us that when we write reports that MOST teachers stack papers into 3 sections. They will read the good first, then the bad, then the medium and stuff like that. So if you aren't that well in that class then they won't even pay attention. Lmao.

actually spellcheck would have caught this word. sometimes if i'm on a roll writing a paper i might right asses instead of assess but, spellcheck catches it. even if spellcheck doesn't work, it's always important to re read your papers and stuff before printing them out. this really isn't an fml. teachers probably see assess spelled like asses all the time.

i think your teacher will let it slide that you forgot the s, ( i hope) but the fact that you used the same verb 17 times in a senior thesis instead of a variety of different words is what i would be worried about.

i was thinking exactly what #74 was. I wouldn't be so worried about the typo's, but more about the fact that you used the same verb 17 times in a senior thesis instead of a variety of verbs. good luck
