Clearly not, because there isn't a single misspelling in that - just erroneous word choices. Fether 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

anatess2 Posted April 11, 2018 Report Share Posted April 11, 2018 Teacher: Brian, what's the I before E rule? Brian: I before E.... always. Teacher: No Brian. It's I before E except after C or when sounding like A as in neighbor or weigh and on weekends and holidays and all throughout May, you'll always be wrong no matter what you say! Brian: That's a hard rule. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

"Alright, kids, up against the wall. It's time for public humiliation. Spell a word wrong - sit down in front of your friends." That's great for little egos. "Hey, look at me. I'm a moron. I wasn't even close. I was using numbers and stuff." That's why I admired that kid who spelled it wrong on purpose so he could sit down. He knew he wasn't going to win, so why stand there for three hours? First round: "Cat, K-A-T, I'm outta here." Then as he passed you, "Ha! I know there's two 'Ts'."
