LOL!!!!!
REPORT THEM IMMEDIATELY
cane them
Make them repeat the 6th grade.
explain the difference to them. I do not know.
If you are editing someone's work you should certainly point it out to them. Many people are unaware of their mistakes in that regard. I have had many conversations regarding words like "to" and "too" also "its" vs. "it's"
give them an "F-" and comment this
"You suck! get it right next time or go back to 1st grade!!"
**i've gotten that before :( [ jkjk]
Delete there accounts....lmao! ;-)
There are worse grammer problems on this site to worry about.
It drives me crazy when people don't use the correct punctuation--or NO punctuation. Or when they spell everything wrong, etc.. People should not be allowed to graduate until they learn these basic lessons.
Send them a copy of that book, "Eats Shoots and Leaves" It covers all of those common signs of poor English training in a comical way.
shun them til they correct themself. I did it once and it was really funny.
The same thing that we should do to people who write "their" when they should write "there"; people who write "lean" when they mean "lien"; and on, and on, and on. . .
Summer school English. Along with those who use "then" instead of "than" and viceversa.
Feed their brain to a cow.
Unless you're their teacher or editor, you let it go.
If English is their first language, they should be ridiculed mercilessly then ostracized. The same for people who can't make their subject and verb agree for number. ("There's lots of reasons....") These people should be beaten about the head and shoulders first.
We should send them to the "liberry" to research how to spell it correctly!
When people are in a hurry anyone can make a mistake such as this.
Manners say it is rude to correct them, but it is still annoying.
So if you're the polite sort, ignore it, or if you're the rude sort, correct it.
Ignore their mistakes, intentional or not, and answer their questions.This isn't a classroom and I don't think belittling someone is nice!
Staple a dictionary to the insides of their eyelids!
Off with their heads!
The same thing we do to the people who always choose the wrong usage of the word "their"!
Oh, and since when is the word "probably" spelled "prolly"?
Merriam Webster is spinning in his grave as we speak!
speed counts.
Tar and feathers!!!
B*tch slap em!!
Annihilate the whole flippin' lot of 'em! They obviously don't belong here. And same goes for the yahoos who don't use good grammar or no how to spell or have English as a second language let alone a third or fourth and make run-on sentences without punctuation and don't make sense.
Smack 'em upside the head then send them back to elementary school spelling & grammar class!! (Most important if English is their first language!) I also get annoyed when people twist around "to" vs "too", "than" vs "then", "accept" vs "except", "they're" vs "their" vs "there", "know" vs "no" and "its" vs "it's"
GRRR!!!!
