sic = I'm an anally retantive [sic] moron who thinks they can score talking points by chilishly [sic] pointing out common errors which are discerable [sic] by a child.
Well that's what it amounts to. Spelling is'nt [sic] the only criteria. Could be gramatical [sic] errors, mixed langauage etc, nunerical [sic] data used in scientific papers etc..
Sorry. I couldn't help myself. I'll let that extra "etc" slide.
