They seriously don't get that the intentional misspelling is there to make fun of DUmbasses and moonbats like themselves?

17. I believe he meant the person who made the sign

I must apologize to our friend two posts ago: I finally looked at the picture in question...and yes, the person (if that's what he is) who made this sign really does look like a ****ing moron.

Not a single dissenting voice yet.  I'm not sure what happened to WW up there.

11. No, you "look" like a ****ing moron.

A Jury voted 4-2 to hide this post on Sat Aug 18, 2012, 10:15 PM. Reason: This post is disruptive, hurtful, rude, insensitive, over-the-top, or otherwise inappropriate. (See Community Standards.)

WW still hasn't been banned though.

I have to say that I would give nadin the benefit of the doubt when it comes to being an expert on misspelling.

She does have the most experience with it.   :lmao:

Can "spelling expert" be added to her resume?   :lmao:

I thought she was bi lingual so would that make her a cunning linguist and a grammarian?  Or was that bi-sexual granmama?

Oh, it is - Tess was kind enough to post the original image below the 'moranitized' one at the top of the thread. All of the spelling errors are Photoshopped in.

Wondered if the DUmp caught it yet, and paddled over to see.

24. Happened to see this

I wander out of the photo group now and then, and found this.
Something seemed suspicious about the image, so I did a check.
The image you found on FB had been modified by photo edit software.
Whoever did it, before you found it, did a good job.
The actual images/information are from 2009, and info may be found here...

25. Good catch.

The original sign, sans spelling errors, was quite as disturbing as this photoshopped version.
Comment was ignored of course, and they went for teh stoopid again.
Idiots. :banghead:

"Whoever did it, before you found it, did a good job. " - Apparently someone doesn't know what a good Photoshop looks like.

1) The 'u' in 'surve' was moved from the word 'youth'

2) The second 'o' in 'yooth' was copied from the first 'o' - that alone should be a dead giveaway that the image is fictionalized.

3) The fist 'i' in 'comminist' was cut from the word 'racest' - there is a blur where the original 'u' was in 'comminist' -a second clue that something isn't right.

4) The 'e' in 'racest' was copied from the word 'arrest' and re-sized to fit. The person who did the editing forgot to consider light and shadow, so the transplanted 'e' is actually darker than the surrounding text. A third clue. The 'u' in 'surve' also has a similar problem (in this case, it's lighter) and the angle of the marker differs with the rest of the word, making the stroke of the letter different. Those clues are harder to spot, so I can see someone missing them.

Anyway, not a great photoshop, and that someone bought into it wholesale indicates either one lacks analytic skills, or one has an overwhelming desire to spread any falsehood that fits one's personal agenda and/or beliefs.

It actually appears the commentor (low posts), was being somewhat kind in order to not kick-start the mirtcycle.  :lmao:

"Hands down top post". That is genius. It just rolls off the page and the tongue. Beautiful prose. Let's work on the second sentence, shall we ? My first offering is...
I don't see her topping it past her bottom.
