[Bucky]

1. Scoliosis maybe?

Something's warped in that picture.

[Mz Pip]

2. Is a "Scholiast"

someone with back problems?

[Barack_America]

6. A scholarly socialist?

:shrug:

[WeDidIt]

3. Haven't these people ever heard of a dictionary?

Wow.

Just...wow.

[BattyDem]

4. Probably couldn't find one anywhere.

They kept searching for a "dickshunery" :P

[ChairmanAgnostic]

8. She is for shredding ancient commentators on the classics?

9. and as an English major, I agree.

The atrocities abound.

The thing is, these people won't look in a dictionary even if they have one, because they are never wrong. Not being able to spell shows that they don't read much.

The thing is, Obama is just too successful and popular, and these guys missed that bus. Now they have to be content with sour grapes.

10. Is Wernot a Scholiast?

[Fovea]

11. When marginalia are outlawed

only scholiasts will carry red pencils.

[Tesha]

[Fovea]

27. You rock!

n/t

[chaplainM]

29. Fermat!

[Tesha]

37. Gesundheit! (NT)

[BattyDem]

12. Scholiast?

Ok ... I assume that's supposed to be "socialist", but come on! That's not even close! :rofl:

By the way ... WTF is that other sign supposed to mean? "My name is Hope not the Congress taxing hope so stop using my name ..." HUH?!???! :shrug:


On edit: Imagine Freepers playing Scrabble. I'd love to see a snapshot of the board! :rofl:

[Adenoid_Hynkel]

15. it's that hip, new free-style thing all the conservatives are into

stream of consciousness placards are all the rage

[BattyDem]

18. Seriously ... I can't figure out what the hell she's trying to say!

:crazy:

[Adenoid_Hynkel]

20. if you flip the sign over...

it probably concludes with "What?!? You think you're better than me?!?!"

Because that's where all freeper thoughts end.

[BattyDem]

21. LOL!

:rofl:

[SoxFan]

13. scholastics?

[KansDem]

14. They must not have spellcheck on their Magic Markers...(nt)

[Occam Bandage]

[flakey_foont]

23. teabag dudes! if you want to get your message across

first of all, learn how to spell

you have far less credibility if the first impression of you is that you are a dumbshit

[Tommy_Carcetti]

24. It's that evil Dr. Scholls, I tell you!

He's gonna to force us all to wear corrective footwear, you just wait and see! That man is gellin'!

[chaska]

25. One thing I keep seeing: the death of the comma.

26. Beware Spell-check!

[ColbertWatcher]

28. "compositional atrocities" LOL! n/t

[sinkingfeeling]

31. Well, we knew they don't have a clue as to what socialism is; now we know they can't even spell it.

[walldude]

33. That does it.. I'm going to collect all the misspellings.

There are too many to pass up. Time that they got one big thread.

[SoCalDem]

35. Perhaps a gymnastic treatment for scoliosis?

Scholiastics...

[and-justice-for-all]

36. Socialism: because it works...

just ask France, Germany and the rest of the industrialized countries.

Do not want everything to be socialized, but somethings like Health Care should be.
