    OMG I am right there with you! I was always the best speller in school so it drives me nuts when I see people make simple mistakes.

    Others are: our/are, there/their/they're and your/you're.

    My man uses "their" and "there" wrong all the time. I think it is so funny!

    Good one.

    Also, "What's P90X?" Ok, how can you be on this site for more than a week and not know what that is. How have you not seen infomercials? And finally, how do you not know how to use google by now.

    Someone corrected someone when they say Muscle weighs more than fat....

    I could retire and live in hawaii somewhere.

    .... I hear someone say, "I could care less", when they really mean "I couldn't care less", I'd be able to pay for my gym membership forever. I think I hear it once or more times a day, ANNOYING!!!

    Also people use "it's" instead of "there". e.g. "It's a lot of people out there that wanna correct my use of grammar".

    I love both of these... I saw someone post "What's p90x?" the other day and I just shook my head. Don't even get me started on "Do I eat back my calories from working out?" and "There's no way I can eat all of those calories back! It's too much food."

    I believe the original quote was, "I could care less, but it takes too much effort." Then, people got lazy and just started saying, "I could care less."

    Well clearly this thread hasn't been done enough because people still don't get it. I think I'll start another one next week.

    Hahahaha. Another good point. If I look at diaries and see people ate a bunch of crap, but stayed under I don't say anything. Too many people stay under, but eat total garbage and then wonder why they aren't losing weight.
