for a good laugh look up the newfoundlanders dictionary

I did work in Fort Mac a couple of years ago and we had a couple of guys from Newfoundland doing some work for us. My boss met up with them with questions - they had a discussion between themselves, my boss could not understand a word they said, turned to him and spoke perfectly fine. They knew he wouldn't understand them, but everyone laughed about it....Like the English, there's the cockney for the north, proper in the south...the east and the west...plus everything in between.

you'll find a lot of people on here have no patients for stuff like this due to a specific idiot who used to be on the board years ago.

i spose... though i dont see the harm like i said i doubt marko was trying to belittle anyone or hurt anyone judging by the replys seems your the only one who was offended...i personally had a good laugh from it i do agree cursing doesnt need to happen as doug stated but i dont see any particular person being called out or anything like that and it wasnt pointed towards anyone......fact of the matter is people spell bad so what who cares ????

Marko,

It would be spectacular if you could learn to word, spell, and punctuate all of your posts correctly before criticizing anyone else for it. You complain about people misspelling simple words and having poor punctuation... what the heck? In this thread only, you missed a minimum of 10 periods, botched capitalization (used when not required or missed when required) several times, and have a couple sentences that are poorly worded. Additionally, you incorrectly tried to correct someone else's grammar.

Your incredibly whiny on the forum... 'can-it' man.

All the best,

Chris

P.S. If you are serious about the 'issue', do not slip up in writing quality yourself, and if you do not feel the matter is serious, stop correcting everyone over it.
