I feel alternately sad and disbelieving when I see this one. The poster is either fake, or obviously lacking in a basic education. This goes beyond stupidity, and speaks rather to someone who wasn’t given any schooling, and is spelling entirely by sound. The latter just makes me sad.

Ya, this is bate; no one is thes bad, evrey misteak seams delibrit…

Maybe. But if you image someone with a deep accent, only fundamental reading skills, spelling words by sound… if you read it out loud it almost sounds rural Kentucky, or Tennessee.
tuna@discuss.tchncs.de 5 months ago
My first impression is that it feels fake because of:
when kids our on him
our -> are
Come try are boy
are -> our
Maybe it depends on accent but “are” and “our” are homophones in my accent and if you spelled by sound you’d likely spell “our” as “are” …i cant help but feel like it’s intentionally increasing the mistake counter :(

You’re probably right. I’d rather that you were right; like I said, a troll is less depressing than the alternative.

But not entirely unheard of, especially with older rural farmers. I think my grandpa finished 5th grade before he started working.

21% of US adults are illiterate in English, mostly in rural areas and predominantly Spanish-speaking areas
sxan@midwest.social 5 months ago
Agreed.
On the other hand, it shows how a primary language having very inconsistent&non-phonetic spelling completely fucks up the literacy average
One of my biggest English pet-peeves. The other is “living language” revisionists who argue that language should be allowed to evolve, thereby validating any faddish slang that’s used; and so-called “dictionaries” like those hacks at Merriam-Webster who’ll add anything to their English dictionary as long as one of their editors heard the word used in the radio once.
OED is the only English dictionary of any repute.

This is an interesting mix of “horse people” who tend to have money and thus education and a really stupid person. Bravo.

People who own horses are either rich as sin or poor as dirt and there is literally zero in between
Kecessa@sh.itjust.works 5 months ago
And very often they’re poor as dirt because they have horses. I analyzed a colleague’s finances with her and the only reason she has to work overtime every week is because of her horses, her reaction was to build what she needs to keep them at home and she then bought another horse because she now has money to spare because she doesn’t need to pay rent anymore…

I know there are many people out there who are this level of illiterate, but the title of this makes me relieved that it's almost certainly a joke post.

How does someone so bad at spelling have the money for a horse and land?
Drusas@kbin.run 5 months ago
You actually see a lot more horse ownership in poor, rural locations than in wealthy ones.

Yeah I figured. But for one, why use a platform if it treats you like a toddler?
