There are definitely a lot of rebels on the internet lately, who are very resistant to the things they do. Spiteful b astards.

Meaning? I don't use defiantly. It's about as annoying as when someone posts an ellipsis as a complete response to something lol.

Couldn't have said it better myself.

This is just a cheap spin off of Zeal's thread at the ATC, and it's not in Japanese.

Eww.

*confused*

Judge not, lest ye be judged.

He who lives in glass houses, should not throw rocks.

I'm calling out the way so many people use "defiantly" in place of "definitely", practically making their statements mean the complete opposite of what they meant lol. And it's nothing against you, Stealthy, it's freaking everywhere lol.

YOU ALL OWE KEVIN AN APOLOGY! He's absolutely right! Use spell check ! WTF???!!! It's just an extra click away!

To be honest... I have quit using those words in posts just because I always screw them up. lol

Actually I'm sure this is what happens, you spell definitely it comes up wrong. At least it does for me. So I right click it and the only option I have is defiantly. But come on who cares it's just spelling.

I could care less.

is it bad that i understood all of that?

I just now noticed the title to this thread... I am a little slow... lol

"spell check" and "cap lock" are tools of conformity.

I could care less.

Don't you mean you COULDN'T care less? If you could care less, you're implying that your current state of caring isn't as low as it can possibly be, and that if you desired, your level of caring could decrease.

Haha sorry, couldn't resist =)

Spell check wouldn't help anyhow. Since defiantly and definitely both check out as far as spell check is concerned. Regardless, the internet is practically the most informal place ever. Not many are concerned with proper grammar.

People always say that this is incorrect, but the origins of the phrase, "I could care less," was sarcastic in nature. If read as sarcasm, it keeps the meaning of the original phrase it is derived from. Of course, people do misuse it all the time, but the phrase isn't necessarily always incorrect.
