I hate guys that run open mics, they tend to have "unsatiable ego"s

Spelling AND formatting! I've never seen so many commas and periods that go, "blah blah ,blah .blah" That doesn't even really make sense to do it that way!

He means "Sherlock's Pub", it's a place in Houston cover bands can find work at.

It makes me feel a little dirty to live in the same city as this guy...

I'll give him bassust since he got it right in the title and the i and u are next to each other on the keyboard. He was doing pretty good at first, but . . . wow

a lot of people have really bad spelling. It looks like they never went through high school. OK or maybe English is their second language.

But you know if you type in Firefox, it underlines all bad spelling. Unless that the person that typed that ad is wondering "what's up with all those words with red underscore. I wonder why is doing that?"

Cleverly worded advertisement. Attracts the right type for the advertiser and repels all who can spell and who are probably too clever for the band.

The porcupine has sharp spindles to guard himself... its natures way of saying, 'stay away'.

Now... lets talk about what grammar and spelling mean.

It really should be "it's nature's way...".
