Road Runner Posted February 16, 2020 Share #1 Posted February 16, 2020 While some people purposely misspell words on the forum, I, on the other hand, am a slave of Mr Spellcheck. I do exactly what he says, usually. So when I miss-typed and spelled "didn't" as "din't", I was shocked and surprised that Mr Spellchecker didn't complain. So I googled "din't" and found that "din't" and "dint" have apparently been deemed acceptable substitutes for "didn't" in the world of electronic communication. In the future, I plan to use "dint" in all forum postings as this will save countless hours of typing all those unnecessary d's and apostrophes. I hope this tip will also allow other forumites to save time and help them reduce their carbon footprint, as well. Your welcome. P.S. Yes, leaving out the apostrophe and e from "you're" was intentional. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wilbur Posted February 16, 2020 Share #11 Posted February 16, 2020 During an airline day from hell I had checked into a flight that then cancelled. My boss chartered an aircraft to get us from Philly to Toronto. I went to the baggage desk and told her why I needed my bag back and she just said "Daint-no-way". I lost it. "Get me a supervisor, preferably one that has command of the English language!" He showed up with my bag in less than a minute. Der is a way. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
