    Omfg what the f**k??

  4. lucifer says:

    thats not rite.. >.<

    • jace says:

      Yeh people should has good grammer hey lolol stuped noobs.

    • What? says:

      *facepalm* !

    • Andrew says:

      “someone’s”

    • meh says:

      He was talking to the people who think it does

      • Redneck_Rebel says:

        I “think” that it does. I also “think” that two plus two equals four. Correcting someone’s spelling on the Internet in general is pedantic enough, but on a Cheezburger site?

        • gehgzdf says:

          wrong. you “think” that it does. you do not think that two plus two equals for, you know it, because logically it could not be any other way. therefore you cannot make any comparison and your attempt to show that correcting grammar does, in fact, make one an arsehole, falls through…

          …i think i have just proven to be the biggest arsehole here :)
          is it wrong to feel proud?

          • Trixey says:

            Ya know, I hear your cry, little buddy. But the complete and utter irony that you spelled it “for” is not something I can keep internal. Next time you try and use big words to make yourself look smart, go back and make sure the little ones are spelled correctly too. I’m sure you went over the perfect thing to say 100 times in your head anyway. ;)

          • Dragdamar says:

            Actually, 2+2=5 as the absolute value of 2 approaches 3.

            • Mike aka thunderstick says:

              Then it would be 6, if your statement was right. But since it isn’t, you are wrong. The only way this would be possible is:
              f(x)=2+x
              lim(x–>3-)
              Which uses all values approaching 3, i.e. 2.99, 2.999 etc.
              But since you don’t know what you’re talking about, just shut up and let the smart people do the math.

              • davey o says:

                shouldn’t the 3 in your limit statement actually be a 1 because you’re then adding x to 2?

              • Maths Man says:

                Two was written to one significant figure, therefore it’s possible values are 1.5 to <2.5 (2.4999999999….), which would round to 2 (1SF)

                Therefore the maximum value of 2+2 is 2.5+2.5=5 (1SF)
                Minimum value is 1.5+1.5=3 (1SF)

                Mathematics is a plural, therefore calling it "Math" doesn't really make sense. I've never really understood why the USA doesn't call it Maths, as that implies a plural

                • Lolwut? says:

                  STOP POLLUTING MAH INTERNETZ WITH YOUR NUMBERS, I’M TRYING TO GET DUMB NOT LEARN
                  Damn.

                • jono says:

                  Nice try but mathematics isn’t a plural!
                  What the hell is a mathematic?
                  Is physics a plural?
                  What about chemistry?

                  On another note, I have a “2+2=5 for very large values of 5″ t-shirt.

                • Math, huh? says:

                  Sorry, but that’s flawed reasoning. The result of an equation isn’t reduced to the appropriate significant figures until after the equation has been calculated.

                  2.5 + 2.5 = 5 is certainly true, but if you apply the significant figures concept to the inputs of the equation, you’re left with 2, not 2.5. So, following your logic, 2+2 still, unfortunately, equals 4. The original value, pre-sig-fig-truncation, does not apply. In your example, all you’re doing is hiding the decimal, which is the math equivalent of lying.

            • WellRounded says:

              2+2=5 because Radiohead said so… obviously

          • Uvulu says:

            2+2 can be equal to 10 or to 11

          • Jakel says:

            “you do not think that two plus two equals for, you know it”. What if time only started a nano second ago and you were created thinking that 2+2=4 but without having actully followed through the logic?
            BOO-YAA!
            Who is the biggest arsehole now?
            (typos happen if I made one ok you win.)

            • Jakel says:

              aaah f*ck i really did make a typo ><
              As im posting random crap now anyway does one "make" a typo or "do" a typo or what?

        • Rodney says:

          Agreed. Theres a time and a place for grammer natzi’s, and this is neither the time or the place. (and the Nazis cringe….)

          • A. says:

            *There’s
            *grammar
            *Nazis

            Correcting spelling and grammar keeps my brain from turning into mush during the summer.

            • Eric says:

              I agree. Why would anyone use poor grammar just because they are on the internet? If you knew how to use grammar correctly, you would use the correct word, punctuation, etc. automatically. The ones getting all bent out of shape over someone correcting them are just mad because they made themselves look ignorant.

              • Square says:

                Internet*

                • Sergeant Sarcasm says:

                  Thank you, Square, for understanding the necessity of capitalizing the “I” in “Internet”. It bugs me whenever I see people using that word without the proper “I”. :)

              • Editor says:

                +5
                Thank you so much!

              • Eli says:

                Because unlike you, a lot of people text. When they text, they use creative abbreviations (i.e. “2″ for “to”, “b” for “be”, “lol” for “laugh out loud”, et cetera), which enables them to write quicker. This becomes addicting. When said addicts go onto the internet, they use this familiar style of writing to post comments and replies quickly. Thus, you get comments like “lol dis is so funy” and “this is so ratarded”.

                Or it could be a completely different reason altogether. :)

                • Teatime of death says:

                  I understand abbreviations like brb or lol, and other shortenings from txting. What I don’t understand is the misspellings of words that ends up making the word longer. If you are using a keyboard, you can put forth the effort to spell and use at least some grammar.

                  • Audra says:

                    That makes no sense since brb, lol, and lmao were on the internet long before texting. People are just lazy and ignorant. I text and I never use “b4″ or “2″ though I will use “nite” instead of “night” because I don’t have a keyboard and it’s really annoying to wait for/forward the cursor 2-3 times to spell it correctly.

                • Envy says:

                  No, ‘b’ and ’2′ and ’4′ and ‘r’ were in use on the internet long before texting was around.

                • Emily says:

                  I think grammar is a generational and national identity thing. There are various types of “Standard English” (American, Australian, British etc.), all of which have different rules of grammar and spelling. Who’s to say that people aren’t correcting people who are actually correct in their accepted version of Standard English?
                  Generationally it is also different. There is a major difference between Gen Y and Gen X, not to mention Baby Boomers and older. The Internet has a lot to answer for in creating a bastardised version of English. That’s not to say that it isn’t quicker and easier to use of course!!

                  PS: I am Australian so “bastardised” is spelt with an ‘s’ instead of a ‘z’ like it would be in American Standard English. That is just one example of how English can be different.

                • Eric says:

                  I guess I understand abbreviations while texting, but if you have a full keyboard, why purposefully make yourself look ignorant? Even if the person has a great point, their post will not be taken seriously if it is riddled with misspelled words and poor grammar. To each his own, but I still don’t understand it.

                • MLD says:

                  A habit. Not addicting. It is a habit.

              • Smeggit says:

                I’d say most people don’t give a rats ass about their grammar on the net and simply do not proof read. Personally I find grammar Nazi’s to be funny, I picture them with popping veins in their temple as they stare impotently at a missing letter they feel compelled to correct but since they can’t they lash out in futility :)

                • Eric says:

                  I have never corrected anyone’s grammar on the net and it does not bug me to the point of being mad. I do think that it is a shame that our educational system has failed so many people with the most basic things such as grammar. This is obvious because there are so many people out there that do not know the difference between no/know, your/you’re, here/hear, their/there/they’re, etc. In my opinion, we have just accepted that the next generation of young people/young adults simply do not give a rats ass about speaking well. What is next, reading a resume that contains sentences like “I want 2 werk 4 your company cuz I think I would dew a good job”? I can’t wait!

                  • lol says:

                    LET’S GO BACK TO CAVE DRAWINGS AND LEAVE THE LANGUAGE SPOKEN! =DDDD I mean, that would be our last resort.

                  • Dreamcass says:

                    All of your examples (no/know, your/you’re, here/hear, their/there/they’re, “I want 2 werk 4 your company cuz I think I would dew a good job”) are spelling errors, not grammar errors. There is a difference. Sorry to pick on you, I know you wouldn’t pick on me, but someone here has to enlighten these grammar Nazis. Why don’t we call them spelling and punctuation Nazis?

                • nitpickersanon says:

                  That would be rat’s (with an apostrophe) ass, Nazis (without), and a full-stop at the end of the final sentence. The comma after “funny” should either be a semicolon, or a full-stop. I would also recommend the use of a comma or two – perhaps “but, since they can’t, they…”.

              • kisekileia says:

                I love you, Eric.

    • Grammar5-O says:

      *someone’s
      Oh, my! :o

  5. jace says:

    i lol’d.

    but can i just say… Scott sounds like a real douche. All of his friends probably do nothing but family picnics and church ceremonies.

    • happygestapo says:

      I’d agree with you if i thought scott was a kid. he’s probably an uncle or teacher or something.

  6. Lisa says:

    Oh snap!!

  7. SkeetSkeet says:

    Whoa.. There will be blood.

  8. Rozzo says:

    ahahaha! she does have a point!

  9. . says:

    This is so fake..

  10. Ello There says:

    Hahahahaha
    Awkward….

  11. A Nony Mouse says:

    ahah ! Brittney win !

  12. Lottery says:

    her mother knew the meaning of the word when i asked her, she even new the price she charged for it!

  13. Sucktackular says:

    Jenny is just being honest

  14. Lissette says:

    I’m with Brittney
    lol

  15. Aoi says:

    what the,,, MY EYES!!!!!

  16. stackmonster says:

    Hmmm. I probably wouldn’t order it though.

  17. Morbid says:

    ohhhh posted too soon i wanna see what scott has to say…. lol

    • me says:

      Yeah, I wish we could get a shot of what came next too.

      • csljr1 says:

        I completely agree – the next few comments would have been very ‘interesting’ to read… (Assuming the mom didn’t just delete the post out of shock/embarrassment)

  18. Kyril says:

    Why is this broth so thick? Eewww…

  19. 1l1kep1es says:

    lol, seriously?..

  20. Kent Coble says:

    Kinky.

  21. MindGrasP says:

    Well I can`t say I
    *puts on sunglasses*
    didn`t see it comming
    YEAAAAHHHH!!!!

  22. Coral says:

    WTF did Jenny mean by that? Assuming she meant the noodles, why would she post those two sentences as part of the same status? (Or if she meant the sex act, for that matter.)

    • ieldanth says:

      That last sentence does seem kind of “I like turtles”-esque. It has no relevance to the rest of the post.

  23. Coral says:

    He could be her dad.

  24. Sher says:

    This girl is lucky she is not my daughter!

    • Sher says:

      That makes absolutely no sense at all.

      • hmm says:

        Alternatively, he could be referring to her cursing and being disrespectful. He seemed adamant about pointing it out, and from Sher’s comment, it seems he would have taken it further than just a weak, verbal warning.

      • Uvulu says:

        AAC win

    • Hierophantria says:

      Why? Because she would have semi-publicly embarrassed you by pointing out something so incredibly disturbing? Folks who use words without knowing their meaning deserve what they get. If that was my daughter I would have laughed my arse off. And if that was my parent who said it I would have done the same thing as Brittney and my folks would have called me up laughing. Any parent who would punish their kid for this needs to take a deep breath.

  25. JT says:

    LOL right. Gotta wonder what Brittney’s been up to.

  26. hmmm says:

    If Scott is her father, then one of them is spelling her name wrong. She spells it Brittney, and he spells it Britney.

    And frankly, what is this bulls**t passive-aggressive whining about “Why does my daughter feel she can” blah blah? #1 If she’s under 18, it’s your right and perhaps even responsibility to make the rules and set punishments/consequences if they’re broken. #2 If she’s over 18 or is otherwise emancipated, GTFO of her business.

    • MLD says:

      “She spells it Brittney, and he spells it Britney. ”

      Because it can’t possibly be a typo. The second letter in a pair of letters is NEVER dropped accidentally (especially when typing quickly).

  27. MOM??? SIS??? wataf**k? in Fb?!

  28. Flami says:

    * CHOAD

  29. Wooz says:

    That drawing on the right of the link is wrong in so many ways

  30. hi says:

    disturbing

  31. Mike aka thunderstick says:

    Wow… Kill yourself.

  32. Ryamos says:

    I don’t know what the f**k is worse. Parents being concerned about an acronym, or the slut mom freakin’ out about f**king (but loving it’s end result dumped on her face).

  33. femanon says:

    You do realize that Wikipedia isn’t THE encyclopedia, it’s user submitted and anyone can edit almost any page on there. Unless it’s referenced at the bottom, it’s like saying “statistics are 78% made up on the spot”.

  34. ballencat20 says:

    ………..MOOSEY FATE!!!!!!!!! ^^ aye am veeeery hyper and random right naow….and this has nothing to do with the picture!! ^^…….i love invader zim!! ^^

  35. PottyMouth says:

    Who gives. I think her parents are annoying. Why are you so worried about WTF. Grandma prob. doesn’t know what it means.

  36. Erin says:

    If this is real, I feel absolutely sorry for the mom. She shouldn’t have a daughter who treats her so disrespectfully.

  37. Anonymous says:

    If Scott is the dad, how could he spell his daughter’s name wrong?

  38. JAS says:

    I just posted this on Facebook, and my mother said those words would NEVER come out of her mouth (or fingers via keyboard). I am SOOOOOO relieved!!!

  39. Kevin says:

    This is the reason parents shouldnt be aloud on facebook……..and i dont care about any spelling or grammar mistakes i have made so bite me

  40. Xy says:

    Plus the fact that you ‘Grammar Nazi’s’ actually took the time and effort to post corrections in the first place means you probably sit on your ass all day going around the internet correcting people’s spelling in forums and s**t. Lolfail.

    • Lolwut? says:

      You took the time to troll the nazi’s. You also fail.

    • Mike aka thunderstick says:

      *Plus, the fact
      *Internet (Proper Noun)
      *L.o.l.
      *You fail. (Fail cannot be a sentence, since it has no subject)

      • MLD says:

        I could be wrong since I’m rather tired, but… isn’t “you” the subject?

      • Randomness says:

        Who actually types ‘L.o.l’?
        No one really ever said that ‘Fail.’ was a sentence. They simply stated it. It’s a fragment of a sentence. So what? Do you have to annoy people with your endless corrections? It’s really quite irritating because you think you know everything.
        Let’s face it. You don’t know everything.
        I’m not even going to say I know everything because I know I don’t. Just enjoy the Failbook post and stop taking away the fun by being annoying.

    • ieldanth says:

      *”Nazi’s” is possessive.

    • Randomness says:

      ^Win.
      Honestly, don’t you ‘Grammar Nazis’ have anything better to do? This is the Internet. We can type and ignore capitalization, punctuation, etc. It’d really be nice if you just let us post what we want. We don’t even know you, yet you’re correcting the way we type. What’s up with that?

  41. balls says:

    STUPID AND STAGED.

  42. Ansu says:

    MOm cream

  43. Uh, Yeah says:

    Wow, you guys are really annoying. *lol* I’m a Grammar Nazi myself, and I find the decline in spelling and grammar ability in the last few years to be quite nauseating. (How’s THAT for a run-on sentence?)

  44. Wha? says:

    Why does everyone feel like they need to comment on the spelling/grammar/punctuation mistakes others make? It’s totally unnecessary, and kind of rude.

  45. TheCheese909 says:

    lmao. I read half of this page and had to stop. This is just too funny. You people crack me up.

  46. Brittney (yes the one from the pic) says:

    1) HAHAHA cudos to whichever friend posted this 2) no scott is not my father, he’s one of my mom’s friends 3) mom didn’t know the meaning of the term 4) yes i barely respect her.
    go ahead and troll me saying i’m not the real brittney, i know that i am.

  47. Scott Shelbi says:

    i am the origami killer =/

  48. djtonyb says:

    *kudos >.<

  49. I-know says:

    Ofcourse you’re a fake. If you were truely the girl from this post you wouldn’t feel the need to present yourself as such; you would just believe that people would assume your the real Brittney. Also, if anyone corrects my grammar You should just fall in a deep depretion, have thoughts of suicide, the person you love tells you to die, everyone of your family members go on a cruise (you couldn’t attend due to work) sinks, and you slowly burn to death.

  50. Wow, stupid imposters. Scott’s my granddad, wtf. It’s amazing what people would do to get attention………fail.

  51. Shutup... says:

    Really… its the internet and your all nerds fat nerds that correct grammar to feel like you have done something important i am fat and nerdy myself but atleast i don’t waist time doing something so pointless… go troll somewhere else

  52. Kagexp says:

    Oh god, I wish I could see what he wrote back!

  53. Major Malfunction says:

    Parenting WIN!

    Jenny totally grossed-out Brittney with her superior gross knowledge of grossness.

    Children, don’t try to f**k with your parents’ minds. They’ve been there before.

    Let this be a lesson to you.

  54. bakedpotatoes says:

    The F**k Word?

    It’s either the F word, or just say the damned word!

  55. Dingo says:

    Boom, headshot!

  56. Cyril Marie says:

    That Scott is such a self-righteous bastard. Like most Scotts I know, haha.

  57. jadedraven19 says:

    Omg that reminds me of the time my mom asked me what a queef is lol

  58. Amber says:

    Okay this is just gross and i totally agree with Brittney.

  59. Katharine says:

    No wonder today’s kids are screwed up – so are their parents.
