Misspelt youth?
Filed Under (Education) by Keith on 13-04-2010

This van arrived at the house opposite today.

Obviously the signwriter didn’t pay attention in the English class at skool. I wonder what his other work looks like?

In our local paper it stated that:

“. . .at the Battle of Bosworth in 1485, where Henry VII was killed, it was found that . . . etc.”

In the same paper you very often find “there” and “their” used in the wrong context, but we’ve got used to that and it’s no longer funny.

Whatever happened to Tony Bliar’s promise at the 1997 elections, “Education, education,education”?

We’re all doomed I tell you!

I always tell my pupils that a lot of English children make spelling mistakes too – I won't mention the grammar that the BBC throws at us sometimes…

You're right, we're all doomed!

And strangely enough (and you should never start a sentence with 'and') just prior to reading this I had read the latest cry for help on an IT Technical Support forum:

Quote:
"started yesterday the computer started acting funny, slow, and then i realised that there were some process that i didnt notice from rundll32.exe changing registries and stuff like that would not allow me to run antimaleware, took me several hours to figure out how to get that running, spybots dosent find anything, macafee dont find anything, super anti spyware dont find anything, malware finds sttuff but not whatever is initually starting this issue, my rundll32.exe, icon is somehow changed to a page file icon, ive tried replaceing it, keeping a back up of the original, spybots notifies me that somethings trying to change registry ever few minutes, on start up rundll32.exe"xxxxyy" and rundll32.exe"pmnopp" randomly start up and will not allow me disable start up. anyone have any ideas well appreciated. i attached my hijack log"
Unquote.

Even if you don't understand the 'techy talk' you could still have fun extracting the ….! (E.g. "allow me to run antimaleware". I wonder how many female readers on here would wish for such a thing?)

I blame mobile phones and texting!!

P.S.
If you want to follow how they resolve the issue, here's the link:-

My diagnosis is that they've been on a dodgy games website. My solution would be to throw the computer into the waste/trash bin and advise them to take up jogging!
