Does anybody else google words they're 99% sure they know are right out of fear of spelling them wrong. Even the word spelling looked wrong whilst typing it, so I googled it.

Usually spell check does that for me.

Signed, million man.

Spell check can be a fickle mistress.

[–] VinceD (10366) 7 months ago

I do that sometimes yeah.

YES...I DO THAT A LOT...ONCE I TYPE THE WORDS THEY OFTEN LOOK WEIRD...SO I DOUBLE CHECK.

What's the fear?

People who consistenly spell words rite are usually weirdos.

sometimes, but not often.

Yes lol. I'll say the word to Google and usually I'm right even if it still looks wrong.

I can never remember how to spell Necessary and Diarrhoea (spell check saved me here 🤭).

Does my head in how properly spelled words look wrong.

I thought it was ironic that you spelled "Diarrhea" wrong so I had to Google if yours was a British spelling. Of course, it was.

It's always good to make sure.

[–] Keelai (36065) 7 months ago

Yep. I hardly need to do that while handwriting, but typed words always look odd for whatever reason.
