I have a degree in herpatology and arcitecture
What the Hell people. Its the ****ing Internet stop whining aboot spelling. Anyways I personally think it is strange that Bush wants to go after Iran. If he just wants to save the world from tyrants and threats he should maybe go after North Corea. But I actually think that preventive strikes are just not what our western society should be aboot.
It seems to me that if you'd studied something in college for at least two years, you would come out knowing how to spell it, no matter how poor your spelling of other words was. I wonder what people on the Internet will think when they see something like that... I don't know, maybe that the person is lying about having a degree in herpetology and architecture?
No, I personally don't belive that spelling and/or grammar has anything to do with a superior intellect. Claiming that is just , well, not really proofable over the internet so I don't see the point in it. Anyway you said that first though, when you called him a redneck. With that you practically said your intellect is superior. I don'T see the difference.

Maybe they'll doubt it, wouldn't change the facts though. And you are basically saying to be smart you need to know how to spell, which quite obviously is not true.
I hate that people say ,"you don't have to spell properly to be smart".
That is such a lame excuse. Especially from someone who announces that they have a superior intellect to that of others.
O.k. A typo is one thing, I can even go for creative communication like "wanna" or " I dunno" or even "whadda ya think", but if you can't spell words and are not bright enough to quickly use the spellcheck option provided on this board, or consistently use words in an improper context, than you cannot be the brightest bulb in the chandelier if you know what I am saying.
And someone should be expected to be able to spell the major that they took in college properly.

Oh well, I personally don't mind people's spelling as long as I understand the meaning. But seriously if you write fast you get a lot of mistakes in your posts, why is that a problem, its just stupid to argue against someones spelling instead of against his arguements. You see I disagree with Napalm but you are just so annoying, why is it so uimportant to you how he spells? And he only said that with the "superior intellect" because you called him an idiot (well redneck, even worse)
Spelling is just not important.
And please don't go after me for making mistakes, I am not infailable and I wouldn't even notice them most probably.
