for me it's loose instead of lose.  That one is rampant in forums, chat rooms, games, etc.

Skuzzy, lock this thread quickly, please?
The awful grammar and spelling in the chat buffer,  while helpful when gauging a verbal opponent's education, is enough to cause the bile to rise in my throat.

you know what bugs me....?  ....people that dont use capital letters when theyre supposed to........ and people that think dramatic pauses (for effect of course) are typed out like this...................... three periods is enough people............... you dont need 17 frikken periods to get the pint across................. you think youve just said something important and want it to sink into the minds of your minions................ we get it.  and use capital letters.  its almost as annoying as people that do this........... after a period comes two spaces and a capital letter.  wtf is wrong with you? and while were at it............... seperate your sentances into a readable form............... paragraphs seperated by spaces usually work............ wtf does anyone want to read a post thirty frikken lines long without any breaks?  its............... ridiculous.  period.

It's all part of the internet revolution.  The internet is not just for academics, yuppies, and nerds anymore.

Long before the Internet, I was embarrassed but gratified when a wise teacher pointed out to me that the expression is not "for all intensive purposes" but "for all intents and purposes."

Sometimes it's tough accurately repeating what we think we hear.

Language changes all the time.  What bugs me the most is when definitions are changed 180 degrees, e.g., "bad" meaning "good" and vice versa.  I can't see anything "bad" (meaning "good") coming from that kind of "destructive" (meaning "constructive") jargon.

Freudian again?

'Pouring' in place of 'poring'.

And, of course, there's the standard 'your' and 'you're' mixup.
