    Heh my issue is more that I spend 8-9 hours a day in a position where I have 3 supervisors on my ass if I make a typo, so by the time I get home I'm tired of using proper grammar/typing.

        Your Score: English Genius
        You scored 92% Beginner, 100% Intermediate, 100% Advanced, and 80% Expert!

        I would be disappointed with these results, but my English Snob Distortion Field is in full effect; so I just blame it on the test-maker(s) not understanding certain intricacies.

          So I took the test, got all the way to the end answering every question, clicked the button to get my results and then BAM! Work's net filters block the page. Needless to say, I am highly disappointed ._.

                  Eh, plenty of those could've been swapped around to have an alternative meaning, especially given the existence of puns. I'd be upset if that wasn't the case, though.

                    You have an extremely good understanding of beginner, intermediate, and advanced level commonly confused English words, getting at least 75% of each of these three levels' questions correct. This is an exceptional score. Remember, these are commonly confused English words, which means most people don't use them properly. You got an extremely respectable score.
                    win.

                          Yeah, that's probably it.

                          Then again, I used to live in Louisiana. The kids there tend to write chatspeak into a high school essay if I'm not mistaken (And if they don't, they sure fooled me). Once you hit High School in Louisiana they stop teaching spelling and most grammar and your "English" class is suddenly 99% literature.

                              The majority is a very stupid place to be.

                              Not even mentioning the whole "teenage girls using internet acronyms in day to day speech, intentionally" shit, when I got my GED there were actually people there two and three times my age that had to repeat it. I mean, I got in the 99th percentile of scores without studying at all.
