Tomatoe Tomahtoe

I wasn't going to blog today, but I'm infuriated. Why is it that people can't take the time to figure out the difference between simple english words? This is on of my biggest pet peeves. Its not difficult people. Its ok if you spell stuff wrong, and its ok if you miss a comma here or there, but saying "your going to the theater tonight!" is just plain embarrassing.

"I would like too go for a walk!"

"I never thought of how that would effect me."

"Their going too!"

"I except!"

WTF? Have we become so laxed in our understanding of the english language? What are they teaching kids in school today? Its even worse when an adult person of reasonable intelligence does it.

Your=possession, You're=contraction for "you are". That's not difficult.
Their=possession, They're=contraction for "they are", there=location.

Affect/effect, to/too, its/it's, accept/except.

Sigh
