Office 2007 Grammar Checks Condensed

Currently writing another story about crazy people and the apocalypse or something. I’m always writing stories about crazy people or apocalypses.

But about Word, I’ve figured out what the squigglies mean!

red squiggly = lol typo lol
green squiggly = word 2007 be dumb lol
blue squiggly = lol you is dumb

It’s rather effective, I must say.

Though I’ve noticed that as long as you litter a sentence with semicolons and other non-ending punctuation, it will always agree that it’s grammatically correct. There’s way more complex shit that’s been coded together than the human language. I see no reason why Office’s grammar check still sucks so much ass. No wonder I’m the run on sentence-king. Funny how my teachers couldn’t be bothered to correct me in papers though.

Oh, fun example.

Fuck, fuck fucking fuck; fucker fuck fucking fucks fucked: fuck fucks; fucked fucks fuckers fucking fuck/fucks fucked fucking fucked fuckers (fucked fucking fuckers) fuck Albuquerque. Totally legit to Word 07. Unbelievable.
