Default Matt's spelling thread

No, but maybe one about 'spelling correction of the day' would be a good idea.

You could entitle the thead "Matt_inva's Spelling Word of the Day"

I think Matt's spelling is OK, it's his typing that needs work.

I'll try the (alleged) longest word....without looking it up:

antidistablishmentarianism

Is this really a word at all?

This thread should be pinned to the top.

Each time anyone misspells a word, the incriminating post can then be cut/pasted to this wall of shame. It's not fair that Matt gets all the glory.....all of us make a wrong keystroke from time to time

^ Oops...I misspelled the correction of the misspelling. Should be "a cappella" - it is two words.

Almost right - it's "antidisestablishmentarianism". And I didn't look it up, either.
