Is it really that difficult to use spell check?

Deviant Audio: Misspelled words are everywhere on these here interwebs. Why though? There is this quite simple tool known as spell check, that only requires a single click, and takes but a brief moment to run, and presto! You look like much less of a moron!

This is why I think most people should just use Firefox. It has spell check automatically enabled in all text fields and it's very convenient for those obscure words that you use all the time but can't ever remember how to spell.

I was not aware that Firefox had that feature.

Standard option :P

Maybe it is because you have such great spelling?

I might just have to check that out.

I don't know if you're patronizing me or not with the statement about my great spelling, but the fact is, I do know how to spell.

nono. Wasn't sure of your browser.

If it was FF it was a joke that you would never see the red lines because you can spell :P

What fun is looking smart on the internet?

The little red squiggly on Firefox saves the day.

It is because internet explorer sucks, it doesn't have spell check in most websites. Firefox does a automatic spell check on every website I go on. I love it, I need it, and I can admit I am horrible at spelling sometimes.
