Bwahaha. That's. . . ha.
I just had to complain here even if I'm replying rather late.
Let's see. Where to start?
The misuse of -- "There" "their" and "they're"
-- "Your" and "You're"
--"Two", "to" and "too"
--" Accept" and "except"
--"Its" and "it's"
--"Affect" and "effect"
--"Through" and "threw"
-- "Loose" and "lose"
--"Are" and "our" ( and in some pitiful cases, "hour" )
--"Whether" and "weather"
--"Know" and "no"
-- "knew" and "new"
--"One" and "won"
--"Capital" and "capitol"
--"Since" and "sense"
-- "Already" and "all ready"
I guess those count as annoying spelling mistakes. But if not, I have more.
It's spelled T-O-N-G-U-E.
And and and "Dialogue"
I think if "onomatopoeia" was used more often, then I would be more annoyed. But, it's not that hard of a word to spell.
And I swear, if one more person spells "definitely" with an 'A", Oooooh. I shake my fist at them.
And just any old internet slang irks me to no end. "U" replacing "You"? "2" replacing "to" or "too"? "8" replacing the "ate" sound?. . . how lazy can one be? ::headesk::
I could go on forever and ever. So, I'll stop.
