Pet Peeve...Spelling.

I don't know why this is so annoying to me, but why can't people use spellcheck on their computer or Webster's? Is it that they THINK they're spelling a word correctly, or do they simply just not care?

The word 'definitely' is the most misspelled word on the internet...according to Digg.

Misspelled words jump out at me for some reason, whether it is in a book, newspaper, the internet or the most annoying is a misspelled word on a sign. You would think one would be damn sure they had the spelling correct on a sign they were posting!

Then, there is the little 'out of context' thing. Like, they're, their and there. Or were, we're. Or to and too.

They're = they are....as in: 'they're (are) going to the store.
Their = their house, their clothes, etc.....
There = There will be no more misspelled words. OR, 'there she goes'.

alright, just a little rant there.
