All fine an’ dan’y, but intenshunal misspellin’s by rap “artists” o’ marketin’ departments don’t change th’ dickshunary. Th’ opposite of heavy is not “lite”, th’ opposite of day is not “nite”, an’ an inner city area heavily populated by thet city’s pore is not a “gito”.
As ah said above, eff’n it’s done fo’ hoomrus effeck, great. Eff’n it’s a typo, fine hey, we all make them. Eff’n it’s done unintenshunally, it rather unnercuts one’s ability t’make argoomnts pertainin’ t’ejoocayshun.

All fine and dandy, but intenshunal misspellin’s by rap “artists” o’ marketin’ departments don’t change da damn dicshunary. Slap mah fro! De opposite uh heavy be not “lite”, de opposite uh day be not “nite”, and an inna’ city area heavily populated by dat city’s poo’ be not some “geto”.
As ah’ said above, if it’s done fo’ humo’ous effect, great. Man! If it’s some typo, well hey, we all make dose. If it’s done unintenshunally, it rada’ undercuts one’s ability t’make arguments puh’tainin’ t’educashun.

Aww fine and dandy, but intentionaw misspewwings by wap “awtists” ow mawketing depawtments don’t change the dictionawy. De opposite of heavy is not “wite”, the opposite of day is not “nite”, and an innew city awea heaviwy popuwated by that city’s poow is not a “geto”.
As I said above, if it’s done fow humowous effect, gweat. If it’s a typo, weww hey, we aww make those. If it’s done unintentionawwy, it wathew undewcuts one’s abiwity to make awguments pewtaining to education, uh-hah-hah-hah.

I know it's railing against the wind to complain about misspelled words on the 'net given the general level of public education these days, but it still rankles to see it. Right after I posted my first comment, a post appeared here on FR with the headline "This photo is dieing for a caption". I still have marks on my forehead from banging my head into the keyboard.
