Hmm... I don't feel so extremely young now, knowing that I'm older than Wolverine :)

... you said "Your" when the correct term is You're, and "stupider" should have been more stupid, since stupid is a two syllable word.

The rule of comparative and superlative words is that, if a word is one syllable, use "er" and "est," but if a word is two syllables, you should use "more" and "most".

Since there were three words in your post, and you got 1/3 correct, that gives you a 33%, giving you a grade of EPIC FAIL

Yes, Mosseh, but stupider is a word and is used as such. Stupid pretty much ignores the rule, like pianos. The proper is stupider and stupiest. Now, modern days may used these words incorrectly grammically, such as they do with many words, but a person would say stupider instead of more stupid or stupidest instead of most stupid, unless the sentence uses an adjective, but that rule only applied to more stupid. If you didn't have an adjective, you would say, "More stupider," but, again, that's probably because of modern illiteracy than regular mandated grammar.

So... ha. *shnaps*

Stupider and stupidest be slang, boii (iz aware). Other slang terms are in Dictionary.com... such as lol or spelt.

Spelt is a type of wheat, please understand. Dictionary.com says:

spelt
1 /spɛlt/
–verb
a pt. and pp. of spell1.

(pt. meaning past tense, of course.)

If you look up Spelt in a REAL dictionary,
*Pulls out dictionary from desk drawer*
*Looks up Spell*
Spell's forms:
Spelled past tense, Spell present tense, Spell future tense.

Haha... I just.. proved.. that.. spelt... isn't a word. Errhm..

*Looks up Stupid*
Comparitive form: More Stupid
Superlative form: Most Stupid

HA
*Claps*

Yes, but no one writes like that anymore. Not even teachers. So MAJORITY RULE! It's not stupidity, it's modern learning.
