Hey Gang, it's "Moot" not "Mute"

[D0ug]

Ya brought out my inner grammar nazi.

Mute means unable to speak

Moot means irrelevant

Just been seeing it on here a bunch recently and we are better than that people, come on!

I belive "It's Moo"

 

[jholder]

RDWHAHB! (Seriously it bugs me too...)

 

[TomSD]

I don't mind misspells or poorly formed posts or even the trend toward lousy/leet type abbreviations but the wrong word (moot/mute, their/there/they're, here/hear, etc) thing bugs me for some reason. Not like "post a correction with links and stuff" bugs me but like "driving down the road and hit a pot hole you didn't notice" bugs me. I just keep going but it is jarring/distracting when it happens, lol.

This, along with the complete lack of punctuation. Stream of consciousness is not a viable forum language.

I'm on a pipe smoking forum as well, no not THAT kind of pipe people, and it's amazing how often someone will be asking about the bowl of their pipe and refer to it as the bowel. I don't know how many threads I've seen asking about how often one should be reaming out their bowels. There really is no easy way to answer that question and it's probably best left to your doctor to discuss that with you.
