Bad spelling is one thing but it can be avoided with spell checkers most of the time on documents and most web pages, blogs and club posts. What really grips me is bad grammar and especially the ubiquitous "your" for "you're/you are". Dont get me started on "To, Too, and Two", "Their and There", "Witch and Which", "Were, Where, We're" etc. Capital letters are also necessary in that you need to know the difference between "Helping your uncle Jack off a horse" and "Helping your uncle jack off a horse".

Oh, I'm with you on all of that. What really gets me ticked off? A lot of people think that "alot" is a word. I see it all the time. Hey, folks! "Alot" is not a word, it's 2 words.

I don't see that too much. A lot of people can't get the difference between "then" and "than". Drives me crazy.
