im guessing people should'nt take you serious just because of you're down falls either?
i can only wonder what our gov thought of these no good people.
people like,princess diana that dropped out of school at 16,thomas edison that had very very little schooling but was one of the most famous/productive inventors of all time.ben franklin did'nt make it past age 10 in school.oh yea that 1 guy...yea albert einstein was so bad in school he dropped out at age 15 then took a test to go back and had to take it acouple of times.i could go on and on about people that were great people that im sure mis spelled a word many times in their life times.
im guessing these people would'nt meet you're approval either.this thread was more to do with you're own ego and looking down at people than it was about our gov accepting us.
I would venture to say that the improper use of words stems from a combination of illiteracy, and ignorance. I credit learning institutions for this. The number of children graduating that are functionally illiterate has risen by leaps and bounds in the last 10 years. It seems to me that the schools don't even teach basic arithmetic anymore either. I guess the schools these days are overly occupied with being politicaly correct, and have to pass students on to the next grade regardless. Chalk up another one for the "no child left behind act"
this is true,but to gauge someones worth over a spelling test is also ignorance.to each their own...Quote:

Just saying that it doesn't exactly lend itself to respect from the community at large when people see that sort of thing. It's not a value judgment, it's a simple contrast vs non-MMJ businesses, who for the most part have proof-readers for their signage and ads.
Someone could make quite a bit of money doing website design and taking product photos for dispensaries also... the websites are also very amateurish for the most part, and often very light on actual important info (menus/prices/services). Again not a value judgment -- growers are not web designers -- it would just help them appear more professional in the business community.
what i find funny about people that think this way is most of these people that think like this can hardly tie their own shoes so to speak.meanwhile the people that these people look down at that really can't even read 1 word can do 10 times more in their life than that person bitching about a mis spelled word.these people the "worker bees" are the ones that have the balls to do hard things in life.if it was'nt for these people those snobs would be living in the street opps i mean road no i mean woods as if not for these so called dum dums nothing would get done.it would all be left to the ones that know how to spell but don't know much past that.
i can't help to think as always everybody gets grouped into a lump when it is not so but thats human nature.there is a big diffrence between the lazy bums that go to school today and have the choice to learn but choose not to.compared to someone that stopped going to school to say schooling of another type like the family biz such as farming,building,so on.but as human nature goes people group everyone it to 1 group.there is a diffrence between a person that drops out of school at a young age for whatever reason but still goes on to learn what intrests them.compared to the ones that drop out because they are just that dumb and lazy bums that leech off the ones around them.
all to common in this country for some odd reason the ones that are the true bums people act as if they were born that way and need help.while the ones that do the right thing and work their asses off gets pushed to the side as if they are the dumb ones.we spend more time trying to correct the deadbeats than we do uplifting the good ones.all of which btw is due to our gov sticking their stuck up noses in the families biz.all of this started back in the 80's with the whole h.r.s bs taking the rights away from the parents.and on top of that pushing the dad to the back seat and giving all power to the woman.
so how has that effected us all? well it has taken the roots away from the family the rock,the base of a family unit.they have push the man away from the family.then at the same time they embrace the "single monther".so what ends up happening most of the time is the kids end up alone with the mom out doing here thing jumping from guy to guy"not all the time but most of the time"and the dad is told to stay away and pay 2 3rds of his already small ck to the mom most of which does'nt even go to the kid at all.so whats left? the streets and t.v.
ps contrary to this day and ages belief the dads role is to teach,guide,support,morals,self discipline so on with their kids the. moms role is to do the same but first to back and support her husband and show the love and nurture side of things.both are ment to back each other in their roles as parents. the man being the rock of the family with the woman being the support.
Talk about creating an argument out of nothing.
The OP isn't looking down at anyone, he's just pointing out that some people in the business don't know a lot about the business! I'm sorry, but if you don't know what a "strain" is then I'm probably not going to take further advice from you regarding herb. It doesn't matter if you went to school or not.
This is completely different from someone misspelling the word "Conessiur" or something on the board.
Then again like someone mentioned above, maybe a lot of people's smart phones are "creating" this strand-talk phenomena. I've seen it several times and I can't help but think most people know its "strain".
First, the post has not one thing to do with mis-spelling a word, or judging anyone on their spelling, second, it is not a matter of them liking us, it is a matter of gaining respect for who we are and what we know, and yes actions do speak louder than words, whether you like it or not. So when someone approaches me or puts up a sign referring to a strain as a strand I do tend to judge them on their lack of proper use of terminology. This is just my opinion, and thank you for yours.Quote:

This is what I was trying to point out.Quote:
