You know what really bugs me? SMS kind of typing, where people spell like they are some crazy man. For example: I lik dat.
It just annoys me so much that people do that, I know they can probably spell correctly, so why dont that do it? I normally dont use much grammer, I frequently use commas etc, but not apostraphies(sp?) and so on.
Ohwell they will learn, especially if they get a job in computing or similar and they have to type something out, they do it their way and get sacked.

I am not the best speller, so thats why i use A spell checker before i post. 98% of spelling mistakes are ironed out this way, leaving you with the odd grammer mistake, which does'nt really matter.
It could earn you up to 88% more respect off SR members, a figure that i just made up to look clever.
Its just giving some advice if they want to be respected round here.
NB: That sounded really cheesy.
