People who don't understand the difference between "your" and "you're" and "their" and "they're". English is not my first language, and *I* know when to use one or another! I can understand a typo, but every single time?
*commence rant*
oh my god. YES! i am a spelling/grammar freak. i swear everytime i see someone spell an obvious word wrong or make a 'your' 'there' mistake i just wanna smack them back into the third grade where they belong

it's not the same with unusual words because yeah, i get not all people can spell that well, i myself suck at lotsa words, but basic english! i mean for petes sake! especially when you let them know they're getting it wrong and they STILL do it. iono if its immature stubbornness or just plain stupidity but god damn. it eeeeeats at me.
*end rant*
peace
