The program: Microsoft Word 2007
The "error": you're - the contraction of "you are".
I right-click on the "error" to view what Microsoft Word's spellchecker/grammar checker is suggesting as a correction.
I see THIS:
I am very concerned! Or maybe that should be, "I is very concerned!" Combine this lovely "correction" with the text-message using generation who already don't know how to construct a correctly spelled, complete sentence...

ReplyDeleteBWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!! I so needed this laugh today!!! That is singularly awesome!
ReplyDeleteI know WHY spell check did what it did (trying to conform the verb to the noun "life") but the result is just too damn funny!
ReplyDeleteOh dear.... See, I may break the rules, but at least I know what rules I'm breaking! (I have a lovely activity for pupils to do to show them the limitations of a spellchecker by using correctly-spelt synonyms of many of the words, it's a lot of fun but also teaches an important point!)
