They're unsure of the spelling of the word, and are just pointing that out, as far as I know.

Ha ha, yeah I thought it meant speculative, in that people weren't sure if it was fact and were just speculating on something. But it didn't always make sense so I figured it may have meant something else. It wasn't important enough to worry about asking or doing a search.

It stands for Space Pirates. It means if you dont understand the word in question Space Pirates will come and abduct you in your sleep so beware and dont be fesicous (sp) or they'll come get you!

(sp) to me means;

1) I couldn't be arsed finding my dictionary,

2) I really couldn't be fragged opening a browser to www.dictionary.com,

3) I couldnt even be bothered typing the word into google,

4) This is as good as you're going to get from me


Just use google, get the word as close as it looks to you and hit enter, guess what happens?

(eg) supercolourfragalisticexpialadotious typed into google reveals.

Did you mean: supercalafragalisticexpialadotious

I thought "(sp?)" meant that the person wanted to be spanked, as in "spank me?"

That destroys my sado-mazochist (sp?) aspirations.
