This is a question Hypocrisy

Overheard the other day: "I've told you before - stop swearing in front of the kids, for fuck's sake." Your tales of double standards please.

Actually
I am not saying I am incapable. The mistakes I make are generally through laziness. I know the difference between 'their' and 'there', I just sometimes automatically type the wrong one.

I tend not to proof read my posts here, it's a message board, it's informal. If I'm doing something for work, I will go over it time and time again to make sure I haven't let anything slip through.

Here? Nah, don't have the time nor inclination.

And, to be fair, I was only saying it was hypocrisy if on the one hand you are 'Daily Mail readers are intolerant scum' and on the other you are 'Oh you stupid retard, don't you know that it's its not it's'.

Edit: I just proof read a couple of your top answers. You're not really on very solid ground here.

Fine, fair point
I do, however, think there's a big difference between being intollerant in a "Arrggh! The immigrants are coming" type way and being intollerent in a "you don't need an apostrophe on the word banana's" type way.

Edit: Still missing the point. Just like you, I type quickly - sometimes mistakes are made. But it's not those types of mistakes that are generally pointed out. "Ooh, you typed HUOSE. Don't you know it's spelled HOUSE you retard?" That doesn't happen.

If you can find more than 10% of words misspelled in my previous posts then I'll eat my shoes. Seriously.

Well yeah,
of course there is.

I had my tongue a little in my cheek. This is B3ta.
