Is There Any Particular Reason Why Nobody Can Spell "Lose" Anymore? What Happened?

[Eddy Munny]

When did this word become such a crushing conundrum that riddled minds across the internet, regardless of age?

Grown fukking men and women just constantly confusing "lose" and "loose" like it's an optical illusion they can never quite grasp. In every corner of cyberspace, from SBR's venerated forums, to Reddit, to the comment sections on Facebook or YouTube... people butchering a single syllable word to form an altogether different word. The current craze is bigger than Tickle-Me-Elmo at it's height.

WTF happened?

Is it the 5G technology? Is it the chemtrails? Is it GMO's in our food or fluoride in our water supply?

Employers should just start checking candidates for the ability to spell "lose" as the very first step of the hiring process to weed out the dumbbells straight away. If they flop on that basic literacy test, you can show them the door before the ink even dries.

[MinnesotaFats]

I'm guilty of it as well.

Been years now....not sure what happened

[gauchojake]

It really is mind boggling

[Booya711]

[TheMoneyShot]

Are most women loose or lose?

[asiagambler]

should be "its height"

possessive pronouns don't take an apostrophe

[Chi_archie]

he said "it's height"


= it is height

what a looser

Yeah well maybe I'm fresh out of Wite-Out. Did you ever stop to think that not everyone buys Wite-Out by the drum barrel like yourself? Huh? Has that ever occurred to you sir?

Plus "Asia" should be capitalized since it's the proper name of a continent, not the mention your handle.

I believe English is actually supposed to be one of the hardest languages to master because of all the rules and exceptions to the rules and such.

But for sure, knowing the difference between lose and loose seems so elementary that it baffles me how so many people don't know... and English isn't even my first language!

[Eddy Munny]

No, no, no Chia...

"It's" doesn't serve as a contraction for "it is" in that instance. It was to show possession i.e. "Elmo's height."

So you're the guy who's been spamming the board with Asian characters!

[asiagambler]

So you're the guy who's been spamming the board with Asian characters!

No that's not me. But are you in need of an academic certificate or diploma? I can provide at very reasonable prices.

I thought that was franklee.

Regardless, whoever is doing that is a looser.

What's your first language?

[JIBBBY]

Some spell it loss. That's another word I don't like to spell period..

[asiagambler]

What's your first language?

Korean

[Eddy Munny]

Korean

I've watched this Korean lesson ASMR video on YouTube many times for relaxation.

It is a very relaxing language. Excellent choice.

I like Koreans, never met one that I didn't like.. Solid Asian race!!

Had Asian tenants and my best buddy married one. Been to Seoul Korea, very developed city, impressive. Had a good time..

I just hope those Crazy North Koreans don't start firing those 50 year old + obsolete mortars they've had pointed towards that beautiful city and bust it up one day..

[LT Profits]

Yes, make me loose my mind.

[asiagambler]

Sadly it's a real possibility with scum like John Bolton in a position of power.

Why did Trump resurrect this Cold War dinosaur and make him his NSA again?

[Chi_archie]

No, no, no Chia...

Yeah that's wrong

[Eddy Munny]

Yeah that's wrong

Perhaps, but so was your assessment.

Maybe you're just not cut out for corrections. At this point I'd seriously question your tech support credentials, and so would all those ninjas that are spamming the board with closed caption kung-fu font.

ZING! BAM! SPLAT!

What? Under this Trump Presidency he's been able to calm Kim down. Lower the tensions. Got Kim to stop firing all those long range missiles, got the North to meet with the South leadership finally, and there is more peace between the North and South today then probably ever before.. Kim isn't making the same threats against the world like he was before.. South Korea is good for now. Japan too.

Next president you need to worry about. Not this one..

It's a jjgold spelling from the old times.

Bolton completely derailed the 2nd talks in Hanoi and looks hell-bent on starting a war with Iran who is a North Korean ally by the way. For Trump who got elected on "draining the swamp", why is his cabinet filled with swamp creatures?

We don't condone JJgold spellings from old times around here. We're a progressive state.
