I don't give a toss, if I can get it right then all well and good but it isnt the end of the world if I don't.
More important and better things to think about.

Re: grammer and spelling police
Never mind the grammar and the spelling, some of the language in the Barbie over the last couple of days leaves a bit to be desired.
I'm sure the offenders know who they are, can we have a bit of a clean-up please

Re: grammer and spelling police
Where is the "Thinks it is important, and wishes people would actually care about being understood" option?
What's wrong with actually spelling correctly?
To me, people who don't spend time on their spelling and grammar seem to be proud of the fact they appear stupid. I don't get it. Why is being uneducated something to be proud of
(Don't reply "I'm dyslexic", as you are sat infront of a computer which has tools to help you!)
Spelling and Grammar helps :-
"i helped my uncle jack off a horse"
What does the above line mean?
