I rely on it pretty much al the time for the longer words.
Weirdly, I can spell ventriloquist fine without it, though.

But if I had to get rid of my spell-checker, I'd be a very sad panda. And my posts would become sloppier then they already do.

I rely heavily on spell checkers. Some words like spaghetti I just cannot remember how to spell to save my life.

Right-click in the big old typing box, hover over Languages, and if the one you want to change to isn't there, you'll have to use the Add Dictionaries option.

I rarely spell words incorrectly, despite my frequent forays into the territory of the unnecessarily sesquipedalian.

(har har har, sorry)

Well, it helps me out miles because I have a wireless keyboard which is hell-bent on making me look like an illiterate ass.

When I make typos, it's usually just things like leaving a letter or two out accidentally. I usually take a quick view through any post I make to make sure there aren't any red squiggles before I post.

So I do spel correctly wihout internet spellcheck, but if I dnt use it a lt of my senences look like thi.

I usually catch myself, but I've gotten lazier with spellcheck, certainly. Sometimes I'll stubbornly refuse to change it mind, when I'll use the more British way of spelling with an s in a word that has a z. Z to me just looks wrong, and I prefer the other way when applicable. Fucking z...

Spellchecker points out my mistakes and I fix them. Otherwise I don't notice them until its to late.

Spell checker! What?!
I usually don't but if I need help spelling a word I search it on my toolbar.
