It's not because you make cute bons mots that we're fooled by your cunning attempts at trying to pass spelling mistakes for accepted linguistic usage, Ron

cum instead of come, that one irks the hell out of me for some reason.

but wenchie, that is the correct spelling...

I have so many!! For me, alot of people spell Michael's name Micheal... It bugs the hell out of me!
Also, seperate should be separate..

There are hundreds of others but I have tried to work hard at not letting those things bother me!! (Having the serenity to accept those things I cannot change and all!)

Besides, you already won me over, Ron. Spellfuckupsandall :-). Cos you see, it takes risk, to be inventive with language. And you innovate like I salivate.

In your easter bonnet, with all the frills upon it,
Youll be the grandest slutling in the easter parade.
Ill be all in clover and when I look you over,
Ill be the proudest fellow in the easter parade.
On the avenue, fifth avenue, the photographers will snap us,
And youll find that youre in the rotogravure.
Oh, I could write a sonnet about your easter bonnet,
And of the girl Im taking in (foul caverns of) the easter parade.

Irv (paraphrased, sommat)

All I know is that my seventh grade english teacher drilled this into us. She was a gargantuan (and I don't mean fat) amazon of a woman that you did not fuck with! Then again, I was often stoned in class.
