And how many times do you see defiantly instead of definitely? WTF?

 

[Southpaw]

it makes me feel special for graduating third grade twice...

Does that mean you went straight to sixth grade after your second go round?

Also, TGT has spell check and lets you know when you spelled a word wrong. Look for a red squiggly line below any words in your post before sending it out there.

Ask me how I know and I will "definately" tell you.

That would be your browser doing spellcheck.

I guess there's one that often irks me a bit more than most others... the use of "advise" when one is asking for or offering "advice".

Sorry if this is OT........But let me ask..... If Firefox catches the mistakes, and IE corrects it automatically (as i just found out). What browsers are people using that don't do either? I'm thinking most browsers probably have that built in these days, no? And if so, perhaps many spelling and grammar errors on some folks part are more of an issue with the auto correct and not intentional. ?????

I'm not arguing either way, as I don't give computer tech that much thought if it does what I want it to do, which isn't much, but the topic has got me a wonderin' .

 

[Glockster69]

I suspect a large percentage of errors are from phones and their spellcheck turned off, or never enabled.

And the "sale" & "sell" example isn't legit. It's spellchecker, not structure checker.

Makes sense.

What cracks me up is that something so trivial pisses people off..

It's legit because of the title of the thread. Try to keep up.

Try to comprehend that what's trivial to some is not trivial to others. And it's not necessarily a matter of getting pissed off, but one of being disgusted with where this country is headed, and the fucking laziness towards learning simple English. I guess you are ok with our language degrading into something akin to Ebonics.
