• “fury” should say “furry”
• The construction of “and why not a treat for yourself” is awkward
• “and why not a treat for yourself.” should end with a question mark
• The capitalization of “Great Day” is arbitrary

• It is strange that the N is capitalized but the beginning E is not
• The apostrophe does not belong

• “At” shouldn’t be capitalized
• “Where you at?” lacks a verb
• “Where you at?” has a hanging preposition
• Better: “Where are you?”
• The quotes are okay in this instance, as “Where you at?” is their registered trademark
• It also could be read as having been spoken by the model in the photo

• “Blueberry Pie” shouldn’t be capitalized in this context
• “frig” should be spelled “fridge”

I decided to promote Wordsplosion on Facebook and got some instant unintentional help.  Also: geography fail.

• The sentence should start with a capital letter
• “its was” should be “It was”
• Both instances of “further” should be “farther” (as she is talking about physical distance)
• “egypt” should be capitalized
• “africa” should be capitalized
• “thats” should be “that’s”
• Egypt is a country within Africa, and is one of the easternmost countries in that continent (thus being farther away from North America than most other African countries)
• too many exclamation points

I sense your urgency!

• “ROSE FROM THE DEATH” should be “ROSE FROM THE DEAD”
• “HES COMING” should be “HE’S COMING”
• There should be a space after “SHORT,”
• “REPENT!!!” and “croos!!” should only have one exclamation point
• “He die for you in a croos” should be “He died for you on a cross”
• “Mount of olive church” should be “Mount of Olive Church”

Superscript, he can handle.  Everything else, not so much.

• “You has” should have “You have”
• “a secret person who like’s you” should be “a secret person who likes you” (or better: “a secret admirer”)
• “Find” has no reason to be capitalized in the middle of a sentence
• “who I’m am” should be “who I am”
• There should be no comma between “Your” and “lover”

Sorry Thank. I didn’t “realize” it was your “door.”
