Today, I was writing my rough draft of an essay, and I forgot how to spell a word. I waited for auto correct to help. I was writing on paper. 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

I hope you remembered to save your paper every few minutes just in case! I mean, what if the power went out!?

I've seen this said somewhere before but I can't remember where.

People have been asking for a while what will be the result of the fully electronic generation. Sadly, we must all turn and gesture to this

You need to go like 6-8 months without a cell phone, no computer. Pay for everything with cash. Just to somewhat remember how it is to not have all of that influence your daily life.

Proof that smartphones are making people stupid....

That's why I refuse to buy one. Everyone I know who has one is ridiculously overdependent on it. Here's a fun game to play: temporarily remove an Apple fanboy's iPhone. Watch him twitch and lose his ability to function.

Ever hear of a dictionary? Look the word up!

Paper? What's this "paper" you speak of?

A substance that is usually written on with a pen or pencil, that is orginated from a tree.

Um yeah, I was just kidding. Jeeze Webster, why don't you go look up "sarcasm". Maybe you'll get a clue. Then again, there are some things a dictionary just can't teach.

No shit sherlock. While I do that, you should learn to take a joke. It's a really good trait to have.

I'm not even sure that there is a correct response to this... Better luck next time ?!?!?

Are you a blonde??? I not do you die your hair?

I do not understand why you people assume blondes to be stupid. I realize that I am being melodramatic about the subject, but it infuriates me. I say this as a blonde, who suprisingly, did not spell anything wrong!

What does hair has to do with intelligence? As a blonde myself, i'm getting really pissed of people discriminating blondes or womens in general. Oh and i guess your autocorrect was off because you managed to make two flagrant error in less than 15 words.

Well I don't assume that they are because I am a blond and I don't really mind it at all...

And this is why your generation has no idea how to spell.
