+1 I wouldn't even call it a disability, just something people are born with. I have to check the odd couple of words but it has never stopped me doing anything.
Most "you guys" don't.
It isn't really I do admit, in most every other way you guys are sharp as tacs. But, because of that and maybe some shame, I also strongly feel you guys tend to forget or dismiss it from yourselves more than you need to or should. I respect that, and for the most part it works perfectly (as I said, mentally and physically as sharp as tacs) but at the same time I start to get frustrated (with a big "F") when I start seeing you guys struggle or falter a little where others don't and all the "smart ones" (see: dolts) can do is throw their hands up or point a finger rather than suavely or generously lend a strong and supportive hand to you guys.
Honestly, I eagerly looked forward to corresponding and spellchecking my brothers college papers via email every other week or so for almost 5-years. Besides piggybacking most the material/subjects he covered, it kept us in solid connection.
You never need to think it bothers me for someone to points out my spelling. It is why I have the I "coad" as my avatar, I forgot who won the contest to give me an avatar, but it was a great idea. The only thing that bugs me is when someone tries to tell me it is simply because of a lack of effort that I or many other people do not spell well.

Well put.
And if that's not enough effort for them, I'll eagerly show them some of the hard effort that I know you're putting into it... about both my size 13-wide's worth.
