Default Allow me to be a grammer nazi for a while
Ok now it doesnt happen much here but with my new office, I havent seen this much bad grammer in such a long time, SO! here are the big ones, feel free to add to the list:

Broke-Its broke. No its not its broken, you BROKE it.

Eye-talian- um no. You dont go to Eye-taly do you?

Seen-you didnt seen crap! you saw it. It can be seen, or it was seen, but you didnt seen anything

going along with that--nothing-as in I didnt seen nothing, first off you didnt seen ANYTHING and second off you did SEE anything. GRR

also abbrevations: useless ones. like Debit Card to DC. really? are you that lazy? l8tr--is this even a word? learn to type. I actually got a resume the yesterday, that had a cover letter on it. First line: 2 whom it may concern. wow...

alright so what bugs you?

Apparently, somebody's cell mate was not very kind to them

The internet and texting has led to this shortcut language. My daughter's drive me nuts with it.

People who don't realize it's grammar - not grammer.

Just having a little fun, my grammar and spelling suck.

Yes! I can't think of the times I have seen people complain about grammar, only spell words wrong, leave out punctuation, etc. Believe me it annoys me sometimes as well, but I would never start a thread about, at least without triple checking all of my "grammer" and spelling.
