if “sesquipedalianism” is an example of sesquipedalianism, why isn’t “onomatopoeia” too? asks the nerd πŸ˜†

The rain is coming down in buckets at this moment and temperature is 6C. Unusual for this time of the year. That should be coming down as the other four letter word, but temperature is too warm.

I've never thought you were strange, maybe a little different than the rest of us. πŸ™‚

People write words wrong due to several reasons:
* They are under the influence of any hallucinogenic substance
* They don't know how the word is written in the first place.
* They use a keyboard and are unable to correctly coordinate left and right hand.
* They have "fat finger syndrome" hitting more than one key at a time.

* in the latter two cases, they don't read the post beforde clicking "send" πŸ™

Some errors are spotted while clicking "send" which leads to edits...
