    Poor grammar is a huge pet peeve of mine. I understand the way we communicate has evolved, but dammit, use punctuation and proper spelling.

    I’m completely opposite. Not a office guy, not a computer guy amd I could care less how I spell or use punctuation on some internet forum or comment section

    For this one it’s helpful to remember that “affect” is a verb and “effect” is a noun. Then it’s easier to know which one to use.

    Your assuming anyone hear knows what a noun or verb is. (yes, I intentionally used the wrong your, hear, etc LOL)

    Did a search for grammar memes and there is no shortage. This is the one that trips me up most often.

    It’s important to remember Read and Lead rhyme, and Lead and Read rhyme, but Read and Lead do not rhyme.

    I didn’t want to take the time to use the ‘ so I said could. That’s about as many cares as I have.

    BC is to busy cutting concrete with giant bad ass saws and running all over the state fishing and hunting to be giving any F’s about your damn grammar! jester

    I admit I am not the best with grammar or spelling for that manner. I really like that spell check exits on most everything I use.

    Fine, I waited long enough. This entire post was started about grammar, but what was asked about was actually spelling and not grammar at all. Their.. I said it. -)
