Can anyone else actually finish reading someone's post after they use "dieing" or "lieing" in a sentence? I mean, it is conceivable that someone spaced out and typed "your" instead of "you're" but you have to consciously try to misspell dying to spell it dieing. I'll be the first to admit that I typo here and there on accident. Typos, though, are way different than completely incorrect spellings. Is it that hard? Obviously, folks who speak English as a 2nd/Nth language are partially exempt, depending on the rest of their writing. (Skuggo is exempt, too, but you knew that already!)

In short, get a free spellchecker or some shit like the one built into Firefox, because unless you're a machinist or fabricator and discussing your machining/fabricating/manufacturing equipment, using "dieing" in a sentence is Doing It Wrong(tm).
