Why don't I just gtfo right now?






JK, I have a few of my own but the minuet I start to throw rocks at someone else's grammar I'll just embarrass myself and become a wounded avoider. So take me as I am, I'm all yours.

Don't forget affect/effect

LOL St
I feel like my wife is writing this. She has real pet peeves with spelling and grammer errors.
By the way I'm the king of spelling and grammer errors however, I try not to because I get lambasted everytime I do.

would of. omg. it's WOULD HAVE.

here's a common one I can't even correct anyone on: Going to prom.
does being a senior in high school mean you don't have to use the word "THE"? Prom is not the name of a place, like "Denny's". I'm going to Denny's makes sense. I'm going to Gym does not because it's THE GYM and THE PROM.

"I could care less."
good. then care less. oh wait, you mean, YOU COULDN'T CARE LESS??!!

Lose Loose Breath Breathe. 'Nuff said.

god, i hate all of you.

Why do some people talk dumb just out of spite?

My mom is a PhD and graduated from Gonzaga University. She insists on saying the name of her own school wrong. We all get so mad at her. Duh, MOM! Geez!

Brits say "going to hospital" or "in hospital" instead of "going to the hospital" or "in the hospital".

But then they also say "maths" instead of "math".

I've tried to incorporate the use of maths into my vocabulary, but it just doesn't come out right.

They also say anticlockwise instead of counterclockwise.

Bunch of bloody poofters, the lot of 'em.
