It's a bit depressing the sheer volume of the tweets needed correcting. Add those that use the contraction correctly and we live on one fucking racist [English-speaking] planet.

I'm amazed at the number of "speak American" statements. Do Americans actually refer to English as American? Also I thought the USA didn't have an official language.

This guy needs to pick up the paste. It's a doggy dog world out there and he needs to count his dressings because these tweets are a diamond dozen, for all intensive purposes.

This reminds me of Stealth Mountain. Which just sends me into paroxysms of giggling every damn time I revisit it.

I think it would be funnier/snarkier if it responded with "My what in America?"

It doesn't, but I doubt these morons know that.

Almost every single tweet I'm seeing right now is someone correcting someone else about the spelling of "you're" and then making a comment about living in *English Speaking Country*. One actually says Scotland.

It's not like they're tweeting, "Spell English correctly".
