Grammar mistake that shits you the most

[DEATHROAD]

My own, I keep mispelling my own name and failing to notice until its too late

"Welcome to *Insert random online signy upy thingy here* Jock!"

My names not jock.. ffs..
Cookie if anyone works out my real name.. Without looking at my account xD

 

[Tharwen]

Apostrophe's and related mistake's. Their feckin' annoying.

 

[anthraxalfa]

don't have anything new to add, but

to / too
loose / lose
you're / your / ur
it's / its


I think is most irritating. Especially the top 2, I get a really intense urge to correct those who say it wrong, each time. And I usually can't resist that urge...

Grammar Nazi's on the internet bother me the most. Unless a post/message is nothing but spelling errors, i can agree with the response of: "check your grammar". But the compulsive behavior of pointing to other people's mistakes and correcting them really has to go, considering that not even half the people on the Internet have English as their native language.

Seriously: just let it go, what you call "butchering the English language" others call: oops.

Im more interested in the message than how they spell it.

 

[Mcapplepie]

People who use 'wot' instead of 'what'.
Really fries my bacon.

 

[anthraxalfa]

It's also very irritating when people say "now" instead of "know" !!!!! (didnt see anyone comment on this)

"I now"

RAGE

 

[morrykins]

When people spell "you're" and "weird" wrong >.< not very good.

Also "ridiculous"

It's "Grammar Nazis", not "Grammar Nazi's".

I can't stand it when people capitalize the first letter of every word they type. It just pisses me off, because they always leave at least one word out from that. It's like they sort of get how grammar works, but they just can't quite grasp it.

 

[Subject134127]

I get annoyed by the classic There/their/they're and your/you're mistakes, as well as than/then and such sort of things. However, it is reduced to nothing by my hate for People Who Write Everything Starting With A Capital Letter. Or pEOplE ThAT aRe EvEn WOrsE tHan THAt bY raNdOmlY CaPITAliZinG AnY LeTteR TheY wOUlD liKe. This last sentence is written assuming they have any sense of grammar. Of course they do not, since it's always something like "pPl DaT R EvUn WsRE tHen dAT cOz raNdOmlY KaPtaLZiN AnY1 LeTtR TheYD liEk".

Also, though this is not about the grammar, I get mental breakdowns and suicidal urges from people stating the obviously unnecessary dumbshit retard comments like

"Everybody I Have Something To Say Im Just The Best At This Game So Leave Out Now Lol I Mean It"

and someone replying with

"Everybody don't listen to *censored username*,your not that good dude,get over yourself man!!"

 

[Marter]

I've gotten used to grammatical mistakes, it's spelling that usually gets to me.

 

[Dapsen]

there =/= they're
your =/= you're
its =/= it's
etc.

But what really drives me insane is when people replace whole words with single letters or numbers.
"hi 2 u 2"
RAAAAAAGE!

you should play WoW.

OT: most things mentioned in this thread.

[Queen Michael]

Pretty much all of them. Especially if they don't use caps. Use caps you little fuckers!

And the Internet slang is just retarded and if you overuse this you deserve to go to grammar hell, where you have to have never-ending English Lessons.

I love English lessons. I guess this proves Russel Stannard's theory that sinners are sent to Heaven too, but they can't appreciate it.

 

[Ironboot]

Yeah, the standard ones like they're/there/their annoy me the most. Random apostrophe's are also very annoying.

 

[kurupt87]

We're and were. I think it's because they don't even sound the same.

 

[lockeslylcrit]

I REALLY FUCKING HATE PEOPLE WHO USE ALL CAPITAL LETTERS IN THEIR WRITING. HOW WOULD YOU LIKE IT IF SOMEONE, IN REAL LIFE, JUST CAME UP TO YOU AND STARTED SHOUTING IN YOUR EAR AT THE TOP OF THEIR LUNGS? THE CAPS LOCK KEY SHOULD BE BANNED FROM USE ON THE INTERNET. ALL CAPITAL LETTERS SHOULD BE USED AS A POINT OF EMPHASIS ON A SINGLE WORD OR PHRASE, NOT AN ENTIRE PARAGRAPH.
