I didn't get it from an eamil. I got it from another web site. How do you search for a paragraph of misspelled words?

I've been here for a while and have never seen another post similar, but I am all ears, please show me the previous post.

I can't respond since you locked it.

Urban Legends Reference Pages: Language (Can You Raed Tihs?)

In any event, this is O-L-D, and so I am closing it.

To all: please check Snopes -- and our own lounge via search -- for things you get in forwarded emails. In all likelihood, they've been posted here before repeatedly and are thus unwelcome. (Never minding that most forwarded emails are pure fiction anyway, and thus already undesirable.)

Dude, seriously, starting a new thread justifying your action is NOT gonna make up for it.

I once started a thread with material I got from an email. It was a huge success, but I am sorry that yours backfired.

Hum? Like he did something wrong... Like he said, it's not like it's easy to search for a similar thread before posting...

Furthurmore, I think it's always good to explain our action. Since the thread is locked, one cannot explain and/or apologize if applicable. The best would be a "discussion" feature, à la Wikipedia. The page may be protected (locked) but you still can discuss it in the background.

I appolagize for starting this thread. I was pissed because Tooki has NO tackt whatsoever.

He does not know how to post ANY message closing a thread with a little tackt. He dosen't need to slam the poster, with no oppurtunity for the poster to apolagize or try to set the facts straight.

He assumes too much and answers everything with a axe.

Wow, you read my mind and posted while I was trying to put my feelings in words.

I agree, tooki can be harsh.

But on the other hand, be glad he didn't banninate you. It's just a fact that some judgments here at 'NN are harsh, and there is nothing you can do. Well, there is one thing: leave.
