Proper use of "They're, there, and their"

Different languages don’t count

Oh , it's not about different languages .

Not everyone types for a living, and some people dont see too good, yet know how to spell, and still type it wrong many times.

But yeah, I would think an executive Pencil pusher, better be spell perfect.

Luckily that isnt me, so i dont care as much.


i had to make atleast 2 or 3 typing corrections on this post alone.

If some of you folks spent some time in South Louisiana , you would absolutely lose your minds .

I went to La for catastrophe duty (hurricane) once. Indeed, I could not understand some of the locals.

When I noticed billboards that said "Who Dat?" I knew I was in a special place.

Unfortunately now, I find myself saying "Who Dat!" occasionally.

A fellow at work sent out a short message he intended to be inspirational, thus:

God is bigger then you are!

As he (the sender) was quite overweight and quick to take offence, I had to stifle the impulse to reply accordingly.

Then and than (misuse) seems odd to me on a site that is so heavy on comparison …

I have a dude at work who regularly says "For all intensive purposes"

It’s misconscrewed.

My wife told me a judge on a TV court show referenced a person who "looked like a deer caught in the head lice".
I'm still laughing.

I never thought BITOG would seriously have a Grammer Nazi thread!

[4wd]

They’re not getting there - and it’s their own dang fault

 

[SC Maintenance]

*grammar

OK, so he was using it as a title or name - shouldn't it be capital?

Again, I stand on my ground that this whole grammar thing is a giant waste of time so long as were communicating.

Or just speak to my 16 year old. I understand about 10% of what he says these days because everything seems to be in code.
