jakj Posted June 23, 2012 Posted June 23, 2012 I was almost to the point of being able to deal with crossing things like "its" and "it's", but I've become increasingly aware of people putting an apostrophe in pretty much any word that ends with the letter 's', like "say's" and "thing's". FUCKING WHY
Industrial Miner Posted June 23, 2012 Posted June 23, 2012 By a grammar nazi, I don't know. CHECK YOUR ENGLISH.
freakachu Posted June 23, 2012 Posted June 23, 2012 It's a mystery to me. Peoples spelling ability's are terrible nowaday's.
Neowulf Posted June 23, 2012 Posted June 23, 2012 Are ewe shore ewe rally wanna no whats wrung with peeps grandmar nowadays?
NightKev Posted June 23, 2012 Posted June 23, 2012 Oh gods, what have I started. The apocalypse. Now we know who to blame, thanks for the heads-up.
Vovegog Posted June 23, 2012 Posted June 23, 2012 Hahah, I think you're thread back-fired jakj. Dont know what your complaining about, though. I see no fault's in any people's spelling and grammar above me. ;)
Brunswick Posted June 24, 2012 Posted June 24, 2012 U gaiz need 2 quit bitchin bout ofer porples splling. Ths isnt skool u now nrd. (That was physically painful for me to type. Ow.)
Torezu Posted June 25, 2012 Posted June 25, 2012 Anyway, "thing's" is a legitimate possessive or contraction. It's just not a legitimate plural form. "Say's," however, should not exist. Ever. For any reason. Period. See where I'm going with this?
jakj Posted June 25, 2012 Author Posted June 25, 2012 How about the time someone said "they'r" instead of "their".
Industrial Miner Posted June 25, 2012 Posted June 25, 2012 Awww, that rapes my head. How about mixing up "there" with "theyre" or "their" ? Always wrong.
Jay? Posted June 25, 2012 Posted June 25, 2012 The one that always drives me up the wall is "neigh" and "nay" or "nigh".
Torezu Posted June 25, 2012 Posted June 25, 2012 Contractions and possessives are my pet peeves. "Your" and "you're," "they're," "there," and "their," and even "we're," "where," and "were" get messed up so often it almost seems to be deliberate stupidity sometimes...
Valkon Posted June 25, 2012 Posted June 25, 2012 Contractions and possessives are my pet peeves. "Your" and "you're," <snip> You forgot the third homophone in that series.
Torezu Posted June 25, 2012 Posted June 25, 2012 You forgot the third homophone in that series. I really didn't. It's just not used commonly enough to bother including it in the list.
jakj Posted June 25, 2012 Author Posted June 25, 2012 I hate "u". Derpy would never say such a mean thing.
Pulse95 Posted June 26, 2012 Posted June 26, 2012 What really makes me mad: People saying ALOT instead of A LOT. It makes me want to falcon punch my computer screen.
Twisted Voodoo Posted June 26, 2012 Posted June 26, 2012 What really makes me mad: People saying ALOT instead of A LOT. It makes me want to falcon punch my computer screen. I make that mistake from time to time, that's why I rely so much on spell check, it does wonders for me, but then again... There is only so much spell check can do for a person, and those people, including me are fucked in the end. I at least try to spell some of my words correctly, and in my personal opinion I think it take more effort to say something like "omg nub gon 2 punch ur face in lulz" instead of actually typing "I'm going to punch your face in." But each is his own and every person has their own way of speaking, typing and communicating. I tell you though, the typing weirdly doesn't bother me half as bad as those who speak the way they type....lulz....JUST FUCKING LAUGH, SHIT! I don't care if it is a fake laugh don't litterally say lulz! Its just...its just bad taste! *sigh* (cwutididthar?)
