99 Posted June 29, 2004 Report Share Posted June 29, 2004 Yes Peter, I agree!! ... and I have to say that the "your" vs "you're" thing is a big pet hate of mine. C'mon people (not just rollaclub), get your contractions right! Funny how certain little things bug you! I wonder if there are generally differing levels of annoyance between: (a) bad spelling (author doesn't know any better); (b) lazy / trying to be trendy typing (the fooly sic stuff); © spelling things how you say it (for example, "cos" instead of "because"); or (d) typos (accidental spelling mistakes). It sounds like people generally are annoyed by (a) and (b)? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Peter Posted June 29, 2004 Report Share Posted June 29, 2004 and when your wife is grasping your/you're hand with a grip like a dawn no.4 vice you will know what contractions are. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

demuire Posted June 29, 2004 Report Share Posted June 29, 2004 And the funny thing is it would have been shorter if Teddy said: "I have a ke70 corolla with a 5 speed manual. It has dished wheels and new tires." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
