Reading this post will take some patience. But it is worth the read, I think, for a good laugh. Sorry for my English-as-a-second-language friends…might be particularly hard for you. Just sound out the phonetics of the mis-spellings and read it out loud. Maybe you will get it. And if you are the type to scan a post instead of read it, might want to move on. First published in 2005 on a blog with no audience. The few that did read it laughed heartily. Enjoy.

i know i r dum. becuz yesterday i decided to help my doter cleen her fishies liddle fish tank.

Her fish was lookin a liddle puny. we thot mebbe it wuz the fish tank, seein’ how the water ain’t never ben changed since we got the fish for hur.

She has won of them fightin fish. I think (sumpin i awt not do 2 offen) they R called Betta fish. I think they R called that becuz if i wuz to put my fish in the same tank with yurs we wud say “I bet my fish is betta than yurs.”

anyway, after i put the fish in a liddle bole to live whilst i cleend hur liddle tank, I red someswhere that you rense the liddle tank and all the liddle pebbels in cleen water.

Well, I just moseyed over 2 the kichen sink, and began to cleen the liddle tank an all them liddle pebbels.

This wuz dum. I no this wuz dum ‘cuz my mimi said, “that wuz dum”. She saw that i dun got the liddle pebbels into the (this is a big wurd) in-sink-er-a-tor. (EDITOR’S NOTE: That would be the garbage disposal).

even if I had not got the liddel pebbels into the in-sink-er-a-tor, mimi said, “wat wuz u thinkin’ puttin’ that nasty fish water down the kichen sink…grose…reelly grose.”

now i is smart. now i no not to put nasty fish water and liddle pebbels down the kichen sink.

and now i no how to remuv an in-sink-er-a-tor.
