In fact, all of them had a very genial idea, am I right?


genial?

Never let an ESOL student use a spell checker or you will get really
silly output.

Actually, that might explain half of his posts.

Someone just started typing randomly and then ran it through the
spellchecker numerous times, randomly selecting words from the choices
lists presented when something ambiguous fails the spellcheck.


Have you used the assumption that English is not the poster's
first writing language? Genial is an obvious word to write
in this case.


So, one might think from context, might have been "general".


I'm getting so ****ing fed up with people who judge the thinking
ability of other people just because they don't act and talk
like Hollywood superstars.


Try looking at some of "Fabrizio"'s other recent postings.



maybe he should have added "On heavy drugs as usual"



shrug I went through the exact same thinking when I started
wondering how things became the way they are. He's just starting
a little later than usual...but at least he's starting. Whether
he continues will determine if he's a crank.
