they're MEAN.

Hound's Law, names after a poster of the same eponymous appellation,
sometimes known as Zen's Law (by Zen) or Skitt's Law: any spelling or
grammar lame post will itself contain an egregious spelling or grammar
mistake.

I think you meant to say "throw that up".

Be careful of those. DO NOT crunch the bottles in your teeth. You may
cut the inside of your mouth. Carefully remove the cap and remove
contents through the opening.

Much obliged.

Back in the Days of Long Ago in the bucolic country known as
Miscwriting, during the First Half of the Month of October in the year
of our making known as 1995, the Hound of Cullen had the temerity to
correct a post made by the Pedantic Woman.
The Pedantic Woman responded:
<http://groups.google.com/group/misc.writing/msg/196fcc74c147b186>
Hound responded to her response and added, "Isn't there a law nature
stating that a post correcting someone _must contain a mistake?":
<http://google.com/group/misc.writing/msg/fc87dce6b7cf5f3b>
And so Thereafter from that Day Forth in the Land of Miscwriting
Certains of the Peoples called the Law of Nature aforesaid mentioned
"Hound's Law" and the Others noted and said it was Good and Worth Doing.
And So it Was. And So it Is Done.
