i have a coworker who accidently sent out "incontinence" in her email to about 200 people. apparently she meant to say "inconvenience" and a quick flyby on spellcheck put the other word.

this probably happened in your case.

I received a very similar email once where a woman told me she hoped her errors didn't cause me too much incontinence. She literally told me she hoped I didn't [censored] myself because she's an idiot. I put the email in our company newsletter.

Wait, now I'm really confused. Did she mean 'inconvenience', or 'incompetence'?

mblax10,

you probably won't believe it but recently a poster wrote the following:

Floor rules their has been significant action and I can not raise I can only call. I argue that I hadn't acted yet, but I really don't know the correct ruling and quickly concede that I can only call.

Is this my fault for being distracted by the waitress/Not having my cards visable? (As a side note I always keep my cards in front of my chip stack after I've made my intial pre-flop action.) Did floor/dealer act correctly on this hand?

bwana,

"Floor rules their has been significant action"
"Not having my cards visable?"

That's exactly the kind of super dumb ass mblax is talking about here. It's kinda sad guys stupid enough to write stuff like the two lines quoted are even on this forum.

People who rely on spellcheck should be shot in the face. Then fired.
