    Default In this thread, I educate you.

    I'm tired of most of the people on this forum not knowing what the words 'Arrogant' or 'Ignorant' mean, yet, they still say them. If your going to insult me, at least know what your saying.

    IGNORANT = Lack of Knowledge, Mis Informed.

    Your ignorant to think Ignorant means just plain stupid. Ignorant does not mean you are stupid, you could just have a lack of knowledge in that area. A stupid person has a lack of knowledge in all areas, and usually, can't remedy themselves being stupid.

    ARROGANT = Someone who thinks they are always right, or think they are the best.

    This is usually used in a bad context, but some people don't give a damn being called arrogant. Hell, I am being arrogant in this thread, I don't give a damn.

    Now, when insulting me, you can do it without inanely using words just to make yourself look smart (yes, I did something in there, but I do know what that word means.)

    Yeah, but theres a difference between SPELLING and MEANINGS.

    I can see if I said 'ingorant means..' but that's not the case now is it?

    can you say WHALE, OIL, BEEF then HOOKED all together without sounding like an irishman swearing?

    didn't think so...
    An example of Ignorance.

    An Example of Sarcasm, which wasn't in my post, but I don't give a damn.

    Funnily enough, if I was a respected member, you guys would probably agree with me.

    It should be you're, as in you are.

    Your shows possession. No one owns "ignorant", as you state. It should be

    I already stated the difference between spelling and meanings, I'm sorry if I do not have perfect spelling, however, funnily enough, we all make mistakes. However, I am sick of seeing the Mis-use, not a mistake, of these words, often used in each others context.

    If we all make mistakes, why make a thread about people making mistakes with the two words you mentioned?

    That's a bit hypocritical...
