If I LOSE some weight, my pants will be more LOOSE.

The knot is too LOOSE.

I want to LOSE weight.

Just a pet peeve, that's all. Spread the word!

    Site = Website (or other site)
    Sight = Vision related

    Ahh, the butchery of the English language.

    I TOO believe TOO many people fail TO use THEIR TOs and THEREs in the correct manner. I believe THEY'RE TOO dependent on THEIR spell check programs. THERE's only one more than TWO of each of these words out THERE.

    OK, maybe the use of TWO was a bit of a stretch...so...like...whatever...you know? (Yes that mess was intentional.)

    I also welcome suggested opportunities to correct my mistakes, as I see them as chances to enhance my knowledge.
