People! Please listen to me! “Definately” is definitely not the proper spelling of definitely; “mispelling” is a misspelling; “alot” is the mistake a lot of people make; you never do something “for awhile” for a while; “could of”, “would of” and “should of” should have been could have, would have and should have; “alright” is not all right; “anyways” should not be used in any way, anyway! Ugh! Separate; grammar; embarrass. Their, thief; believe, receive; quite, quiet… Informality is awesome; but no!
Eh, but who am I, really? *activates self-defence mechanism*

The sad thing is, thanks to the Internet, no one will actually remember how to spell these simple things properly soon.
Hopefully you gave some people a clue.

I misspell all the time. And I mean all the time. Especially the word definitely (is that right?). I know the correct spelling, I just misspell it when I type fast. *eez an idiot*

It’s not like I want to misspell but I have this problem of typing too fast *checks errors* Even in pronunciations I correct others. I also couldn’t bear to see mistakes. It’s what we call imperfection. Everyone wants to be perfect

Good that I’m not the only one who notices things like this. People usually tell me that I have no say as I’m not a native speaker, but come on…I knew the obvious difference among “there”, “they’re” and “their” when I first started learning English.
Oh, well, what can you do when those peoples dont liek grammer
(The last paragraph was obviously the way it was on purpose;))

And just because you’re wired doesn’t mean you’re weird! It also doesn’t make you ridiculas.
Seriously, though, when it comes to the internet (blogs, mbs) people are often typing very rapidly and so it is quite understandable.

I’m a pretty good speller, but I’m sure I’ve done that before, I used to spell separate as seperate…until my Chemistry teacher corrected me. Anyway, my car got saran wrapped and on the typed not it said “Hope your not running late” and I was just like idiot, “I hope you’re able to pass English.”

Woooh I love grammar. I used to bug my friends about saying “anyways”. I said it wasn’t a word because it didn’t show up as one on Microsoft Word, and it wasn’t in my dictionaries. Apparently now it’s in both!

I always bug my friend when she misspells something. This is especially when she’s trying to be high superior of me and yell at me over AIM. It bothers me as well. I’m more of a comma person myself though. Comma over usage and under usage drives me completely insane.

hey thanks for the comment, and we’re all influenced by the media. actually, in some ways, if you try to avoid influence, you tend to acknowledge what you’re trying to avoid more. therefore you do start thinking in the way you dread. well this is true for some people anyway…anyways (mischevious grin). but it’s good you can admit that you’re at least in a minimal way influence by it, i mean.. it influences anyone whether we like it or not
aha, and this entry is just really funny. if i had to type out one simillar to this, i’d probably be proof reading it for 2 days looking for spelling and grammar mistakes which is why i just dont care
as long as i dont use the missspellings (yes i did that on purpose) and miss-gramar-ing in essays!

Do you want to edit my essays? Since I suck at writing essays and I have no grammar (or is it grammer) whatsoever. Or is it what so ever.

Haha, I nitpick on a lot of grammar related things too. What annoys me the most is when I see someone use your instead of you’re and vice versa. It gets harder to read.
English is not my first language but a good thing to use is of course “i before e except after c” – eh heh.

‘Anyways’ exists in the dictionary. Not all blogs are meant to be formal.
The rest of the misspellings.. agreed.
