Irv gotti in the club gettin tipsy

Spoiler [+]
there's a thread for this already
 
I appreciate the OP's efforts here, and I'm all for proper-grammar, but there will always be those who will feel that "it's just the Internet" or "who made you the grammar-police?"...

 @ that "irv gotti" line....
 
Are you the dude who corrected that other dude in that thread yesterday? Yes, vague question I know.

I do get irritated by their, there, and they're too though, especially when it's obvious which one you should use.
 
A little part of my dies every time i see those words used incorrectly.


Jk. I don't care as long as I know how they're used.
 
they're their there
your you're

then than

to too

irks the crap out of me when I see them used incorrectly

if your brain is thinking "they are" how do your fingers type "there or their" ?  I don't get it

another thing that I see on here a lot is could of, should of, or would of

of instead of have

I've never understood people who defend ignorance or just plain old laziness.

I know!
The thing is, when these individuals start defending themselves, I don't even bother arguing with them cuz I know it'll be pointless.
