    Yes. Minor mistakes don't matter so much, but being able to express yourself clearly is very important.

    This is picky, but it's been bugging me lately- I'm going to say this once and move on.

    'Weight' as a verb does not mean to 'weigh' something; it means to make something heavier. You weigh yourself on a scale to determine your weight. You weight a stack of papers so they don't blow away.

    That one that bugs me the most is "could of", "should of" and "would of". Grammatically, it simply doesn't make any sense. I haven't seen it here yet but I have on several other sites. What they are attempting to say is "could've", "should've" and "would've". I realize how it sounds when spoken, but have these people honestly never learned contractions?

    Could have = Could've
    Should have = Should've
    Would have = Would've

    The word "of" has no place here.

    Anyway... :smile:

    How about LOL?

    I never write LOL. I bet 90% of people write "lol" even when they think it's not funny.

    Hehe

    Mother Nature is cruel.

    I'm a dyslexic Grammar Nazi. I notice the mistakes, but I know the second I point one out, I'm going to misspell my own frickin' name.
