    I'm not lysdexic!rolleyes

    Apologies to those who are afflicted by dyslexia, these are not my words.

    This was from a user today, I think they were trying to be funny when referring to the number of spelling errors in a recent speed test.

    I almost laughed, but do you have a google tool-bar, with a spell-check button on it? If your spelling is that bad, you might want to look into one....;)

    Was this person that pointed out all your sp. mistakes, looking for help? How was their spelling? :-D

    I hope tomorrow goes better for ya! ;)

    If you think about it if a dyslexic person wanted to write lysdexic as pun regarding their condition its probable they would misspell and end up with the word dyslexic.

    So if a dyslexic person says "I am dyslexic." They were probably aiming for lysdexic so laugh and say great joke.

    Hey Guys,

    Was just passing on what I over-heard, when I was working in one of our Adult training area's.

    I think the relatively new user, whom is a bit of a joker, was refferring to the amount of error's in a typing speed test that his neighbor was hasling him about - in a jovial fashion.

    If you have a favorite or funny user monment other than the "Blond trying to use error correction fluid on the screen for spelling mistakes", please add to this.

    And again apologies to those whom are affacted by Dyslexia, and like I said these are not my words.
