Chevrolet and apple pie baby! I just tell them all to go to CA where they are welcome.:p

Because "there are more important things to worry about" seems like a poor and lazy excuse to not do right by the language.

I'm just waiting for you guys to break off into the ocean. That will show you!!!SmileWavy

Does this grate on you as well or is this just me?:eek::eek: Is this misuse of English acceptable or not?
I'm pretty sure anyone on this forum that types "learn me about" is being funny. :D

What irritate me most is people who are lazy and come off "like my ass":)

Yeah, the green text is great but a PITA.

How about "trailor"?

Bunkers are off fairways, sand traps are green side.

spilling nazi's have lil winkies.


Spelling Nazi's have little winkies.


fixt it fer ya.

Bad grammar/spelling really irritates me, especially in the business world.

We had a proposal from a cleaning company submitted to us and it was bad.

It was filled with spelling and grammar errors as well as general sloppiness.

We went with the competitor even though the pricing structure was more expensive because their proposal package was more professional appearing.
