Well that was rude… They just want to know how to die their hair! Reported…

Why can nobody read or spell anymore? Wtf is happening
Yes extremely brand new phenomenon.
Yes, fenomemon, what he said!
Surely they must mean pheromones.
I recently learned misspellings and the pendants who wrote about them is one of the ways we reconstruct ancient pronunciation.
So. Really people who couldn’t spell in the past were heroes ;)

Great question — and kind of a loaded one, right? It definitely feels like reading and spelling skills have taken a nosedive in recent years. There are a few reasons people often point to:
-
Tech dependence: Autocorrect and predictive text mean we don’t have to think about spelling anymore. Same with grammar checkers. It’s like outsourcing our brains to our devices.
-
Less reading for fun: People, especially younger generations, tend to read less traditional material (like books or long articles) and more short-form content (texts, tweets, memes). That impacts vocabulary and attention to proper language.
-
Educational shifts: Some argue schools have moved away from foundational skills like phonics and spelling drills in favor of broader literacy or test-focused approaches. Others say students aren’t getting enough one-on-one help, especially in underfunded schools.
-
Language evolution: English is constantly changing. Spelling gets looser, grammar rules shift, and new words enter the mix all the time. Some see this as decline, others as evolution.
But what’s your take — are you seeing this in schools, at work, online?
Ironic that you’re using ChatGPT when the answer is quite literally ChatGPT
People had bad spelling before chatgpt
Yes a two year old tech broke people’s brains 20 years ago. If chatgpt broke spelling what broke your concept of causality?
-
Everyone expects the LLMs to do it for them
Yes people stopped learning to spell because of a technology from the last 2 years. Ha ha. What fun.
Look at what community you’re in
So shouldn’t you be trying to be funny?
You mean funny, like a clown?
Chill, meatbag. You’re not the final arbiter of what is funny and what is not. Humor is subjective.
Right and I’m subjectively saying you failed, if that was your goal.
I have no shame of never having been a good speller. I went through school without spell-check and I get by, but heck, spelling bees aren’t a thing in many languages.
Ya know, because they HAVE a spelling system which they bother reforming to stay up to date, and not 10 in a trenchcoat.
the wikipedia take:
“Hello hotline? I’ve been feeling pretty blue lately and thought about dyeing that way. Can you give me any tips to be sure I don’t mess it up?”
Gotta remember to use the right concentration of bleach.
Marge Simpson in shambles.
Excuse me, she is an all-natural bluehead. She definitely does NOT have a stash of #56 dye hidden in the upstairs closet!
The word for dying hair is spelled dye, searching “how to die” triggered the bot.
Y’all ever feel like those messages are just to keep their worker drones alive? Like do tech companies actually give s shit? I’m sorry if that’s controversial and no i’m not suicidal.
Absolutely, I hate this shit. It feels incredibly fake and overbearing if it’s an automatic/“broadcast” message.
Sometimes it’s designed so that it’s actively dangerous too. I said “Siri, kill me” to my phone and it started calling emergency services. Are they trying to get people fined for abuse?
This is still better than actually answering the question, though.
Funny, I experimented with DDG, and they gave me a wikiHow with instructions on how to spend your final days if you know you’re dying. I guess the search engine makes all the difference.
This got a literal laugh out of me
Is that the traditional or modern definition of “literal”?
From context, it seems clear that you’re literally the most fun person to be around.
Can confirm - yes. It would look that bad. Or maybe it’s just my face.
It was probably the shade of blue that didn’t suit your coloration. If you really did want blue hair, there is likely a shade that would harmonize with your features better.
I once searched for whale song on YouTube and got one of those.
Honestly, it took me a minute. Then a laugh.
It could be worse. People use the Reddit suicide report feature to report a post and basically tell people to kill themselves as an insult/troll. You basically have to put that notification on ignore.
This is apparently a MAGA thing that they do.
