This.
Not to me... I spell it this way:
definitely
Ah, you are correct. But please don't be so...judgemental...I haven't had much sleep lately.
Yeah, I see that alot.
Doh! I get it now, you are being funny (I think).
Awe, that's just mean.
Ha ha, wait a minute, I might have just had a snark fail (a snail, if you will). Is it "judgement" with the 'e' in the middle in Canada? If so, I apologize for my United States-centrism.
Don't be blew, KJ. Snail happens to the best of us.
I am also sick of people wanting "piece of mind". A piece of whose mind? What are you going to do with it?
It's PEACE of mind, people. As in, calm thoughts, less anxiety, etc.
The rediculous thing, I think for a lot of the older posters, is a hold-over from TK and TN. The same with MorAn, JealousE, and Walla.
My favorite, though, was one from Married Life about a year or so ago: panflete.
You figure that one out. It's hilarious when you do.
Unable to even.

??? Pamphlet???
Wait, is that supposed to be pamphlet?
Sweet, baby Jesus.
Another one I like? Stocker. As in, I am Sookie's stocker because I peer in her windows at night.

Ahem... from the all-knowing wikipedia:
In a non-legal context, spelling differs between countries. The spelling judgement (with e added) is common in the United Kingdom in a non-legal context. The spelling judgment without the e is however often listed first and in any case without comment or regional restriction in major UK dictionaries.[5]
[7] In British English, the spelling judgment is correct when referring to a court's or judge's formal ruling, whereas the spelling judgement is used for other meanings.
In American English, judgment prevails in all contexts.[9] In Canada and Australia, in a non-legal context both forms are equally acceptable, although judgment is more common in Canada and judgement in Australia.[10] However, in a legal and theological context, judgment is the only correct form. In New Zealand the form judgment is the preferred spelling in dictionaries, newspapers and legislation, although the variant judgement can also be found in all three categories. Usage in South Africa is similar to that in Australia. The spelling judgment is also found in the Authorized King James Version of the Bible.
I tend to cringe a little every time I see any type of grammar mistake. That's probably because I'm an English teacher and can't help but look for mistakes in writing. I have learned to stop correcting my husband...his grammar sucks:)
This is my favoUrite. I like it alot.
What, are you like trying to give people 'advise' on spelling and 'grammer'?!?
OMG I loved hammie down
AH! So glad I'm not the only one who hates "awe".... on FB my 2 young cousins & their friends use it all the time and it makes me nuts.
Though not as nuts as my BIL who "should of" failed english class in middle school, I think. Gah.
Hammie downs was my fave.
This one kills me. How do so many people not know the difference between lose and loose? I see it on here and on facebook all the time. LOSE. It's a 4 letter word. Get it right!
::cringe::
I didn't learn how to spell ridiculous until someone called me out on the baby boards. And I just recently learned how to spell definitely, thanks to spell check in an email the other week. I would have bet money that it was spelled with an A... ain't that some shiit.
But I did see this gem once- someone was out "running aarons." I always felt bad for the Aarons, they must be tired...
I suck at spelling so that doesn't generally bother me too much. Wrong versions of a word drive me crazy, though. How do people not know the difference between to/two/too, or there/their? That is more on facebook, than the bump though. Using "advise" instead of "advice" also bugs me.
