"masterbate" vs. "masturbate"

Post by ohyesplease »

Hey guys.
I really get a toothache when I read "masterbate".
It's spelled "masturbate" with a "u".
I have read this wrong spelling a lot of times in the internet as also on this site, so I thought it could be worth to call your attention on right orthography. :)

A masterbater would be s.o. who batens (weakens) the master. LOL. Makes no sens does it?

I share your pain, but expecting that mistake to stop is on the optimistic side to say the least.
Yes, I most certainly CAN do it again!

It's nice to see that I am not the only one irked by poor spelling, garbled syntax, etc.
I'm willing to be forgiving when we're talking about those for whom English is not their first language, but it's just ridiculous to see the sheer laziness and stupidity of some heir whoe kant Rite a sentnce 2 saive there lifes -Get a dixonary, 4 the :love: of God!

Plus, "masturbate" just looks and sounds nastier to me. :lol:
