Like it or not, but the words you speak and the grammar you use tells a lot about you. Sure, spelling errors might happen to even the best of us, but 'ritin lyk dis' won't get you promoted. Yet, sometimes, people don't really realize how much of a difference good or bad grammar can make. Or spelling mistakes. Luckily, the grammar police usually help us clear things up by doing a thorough spell-check.
Below, Bored Panda has put together a list of funny spelling mistakes that we're hilariously caught by the grammar police. Every single pic shows how something like forgetting a comma can give your sentence a completely different meaning! So keep on scrolling to check out the power of punctuation and spelling, and don't forget to vote for these funny fails!

"I wanna baby" and "I wanna, baby." The context makes the error tough! Or is it even an error? Awesome!!

Really? Are you really any of those? Your post would suggest otherwise...
The thing that stressed me out is that the person has plans of going to med school
I love how random person pops in and says 'I made a collage in college once'

No. No commas in the sentence. And it has nothing to do with grammar, just correct capitalization.

Don't swallow the cereal right out of the box! Next time, the toy might not slide down your esophagus. It might get stuck and you would choke!

Strictly speaking "Their hot heads" could be correct, so long as the intended statement was just about their hot heads and not "They are hot heads." However, the followup comment used the wrong your, so the poster should've quit while they were *ahem* ahead
The last statement would have to contain something descriptive; such as, "Their hot heads were steaming."

And the word "grammar" is spelled correctly not only in the repost, but on the page it is pulled from.

While your point is valid, there is way more wrong in these examples than mere semicolon usage. I was a s****y speller up until my mid twenties and I was still not as bad as these examples. I cared to improve and did improve. So many people seem to just take the "you're perfect the way you are" stance, become indignant and angry, and continue on as they are. While there are neurological disorders that make learning to spell much more difficult than average, the will to work at it is what tells the story. I've seen so many people effectively declare that Facebook/texting excuses them from minimal effort at communication. I would never want to engage such people as an educator, a doctor etc.
