With the advent of texting, spelling and grammar are in serious trouble. So too is dinner conversation. Disregard all the naysayers. You are correct.  

But you forgot my favorite one. Loose, and lose. I see them used incorrectly all the time here on TER.

Loose= Not tight.
Lose=Clinton 504 electoral votes, Trump 34 electoral votes.

Proper grammar, is just as important as proper spelling. Let's make sure we are on the same page.....
Accept=Take
Except= All but this
You're= You are
Your= Belongs to you
Hour= Time
Our= Belongs to us
Their=Belonging to a group
There= Not here
They're= They are
To=Where you are going
Too= Also; excessive  
Two= 2
And last but not least....
Where= Location
Were= Verb describing something of the past
Wear= Clothing

Have a wonderful grammatically correct day :)

Please get back to me ASAP.

This may be a Jeopardy question.

English is weird  

It can be understood  
through tough,  
thorough  
thought, though

Coming from someone who doesn't know shit about grammar. Plus, hates all other escorts. Fancy8888, get a life and quit hating on other girls. It gets old listening to you whine all the time. Maybe you oughta try promoting some business urself. It might make you happy to earn $50 an hour

starting a thread and always seem to try to call them for a threAD.

When is the last time you started a thread?

"She" does the same thing everywhere.  Sometimes it even looks like someone else is posting for "her".

It's "write" as in "who writes this shit" and "what kind of pedantic putz really gives two fucks about the way someone writes as long it doesn't give us a headache to read?"

and if that is you're bet on the election, then you most definitely have a screw lose and are all but guaranteed to lose.

are writing satirically and made those errors on purpose.

Almost as brilliant as your putting "eom" in the body of your message instead of the headline where it belongs.  Or was that just a clever joke?  Jeez, you're deep.  Like a...

Like I said, "nothing gets by him" especially things written in big bold letters stating for all to see "Jake is an ASSHOLE!!!" I am awed by his skills of deduction.  

and for his next trick, he is going to reveal to the class that I too am an Asshole, Hold the fucking presses. lol

I meant they're now, don't get two upset with him.

I do hope you realize the title of TER's most pedantic putz was already given out long ago, and it's a lifetime achievement award that will require you to make several thousand more posts on the subject to even qualify, much less win.

Check the OP, check the replies and then rethink your accusation. If your vodka soaked brain is even capable of thinking at this hour.

You need to drink more, then get back to me.  Never mind.
The accusation stands,

It falls as flat as you do after a large bottle of vodka.

In all fairness, you are capable of standing on your own after a small bottle, but since when are you satisfied with a small bottle?

if I spok outta turn. pleas know mor whipping me and pleas no mor chains. I just an igniant fool that had a thogt of my own

The former is frequently misspelled with the latter.  Problem is, a spell checker won't pick up the mistake.  Worse, those "loosers" really come as "losers"...I guess they're just "lost".
