Isn't this lovely?

This little screed, my dear, will not motivate visitors to contribute to your site. I understand disabilities and conditions. I do not mock people for having dyslexia. However, I may very well mock people who say such things as this:

"So if anyone wants to tell me that I can't spell and to enlighten me on the wonders of a new and fun envention called a dictionary or spell check then I would be over joyed to tell them to GO TO FUCKING HELL AND DIE IN A VAT OF PIG SHIT YOU FUCKING CUNT!!!"

I see. You are too good to use a dictionary or a spell checker. I, who have a Master's degree in English literature, am not too good to use a dictionary, and neither is my boss, whose English is impeccable. In fact, because I use said dictionary online (http://www.m-w.com) I know that if you spell something wrong, Merriam-Webster will give you a list of words you might have meant, which means you *don't* have to know how to spell the word perfectly in order to look it up in the first place. Imagine that! But no...you eschew this "envention" (sic) as a waste of your precious time. Yes, I am sure the timeless wisdom of your 24 years *rolls eyes* will take you far in life.

It's not your dyslexia, sweetheart. It's your attitude. Don't count on me to donate to your mediocre comic, recommend it to my friends, or buy merchandise. In fact, don't count on anyone in the publishing business to do so. If you publish something, even if you do not make money from it, it's expected that you will at least take a stab at properly using your native language in said publication. I would be ashamed to publish something with frequent, egregious spelling errors, along with a page of insults for those who reasonably expect it to contain decent English.

I have dyscalculia. Translation: I have can't-do-math-itis. I took remedial math all through school and college, including summer school, and it did not a whit of good. So I am not a clueless fool regarding learning disabilities. Do I refuse to use calculators, spreadsheets, and other tools and programs to help me overcome this problem? I do not. I use them frequently and gratefully, and I do not complain about the time it takes. I also sometimes ask other people for help, just as you could have someone proofread your stuff, for the whole 30 seconds it would take them. I do not have a page of insults ready for, say, bank officials and credit card companies, who expect me to do the math necessary not to overdraw my account.

Why not save your most vitriolic rants for important topics, such as the killing of doctors who perform reproductive choice services? Perhaps this would make more sense than BAAAWWWWWing about "I can't spell and I'm not even gonna try and FUCK YOU!"

Please grow up, sister. Unless you want to resign yourself to a lifetime of asking "you want fries with that?"
