Better than the opposite: not being able to spell common words. Everybody is like, “How do you not know how to spell this word? You probably saw it about a hundred times in every novel you ever read,” and you search your only memory of that one book where Curious George rides a sick wheelie lol

I once used the word 'banal' in conversation with my then GF. I was not aware that banal uses a soft A. Combined with a Texas accent, she almost spit out her drink. Still married me.
