Grammar alert: of/off, to/too

[Leto]

Of and have.

It doesn't bother me,i'm probably an offender,tis the tinterweb thingy not an uni paper

This attitude gets me. "It's only the internet" - yep, it's only the largest medium of communication the world has ever seen, let's not bother about grammar and spelling...


FFS.

Call me a pedantic old fart, but I am sometimes shocked by the inability of some people on this forum to distinguish between "to" and "too", or between "of" and "off".

So there.

Of and off mistakes I can swallow, but of instead of have is unforgivable and there are dozens on this forum who are bound for Purgatory at best!

The inability to see homophones and minimal pairs in writing is not the most offensive thing.

Yeah there’s a hell of a difference between

“Let’s eat out Grandma”

and

“Let’s eat out, Grandma”

Is that you, Wayne?

I think some posters need to look at the important things in the world and fuck of...:)

You could blame the parents
you could blame the education system
collectively blame sucsessive governments
or you could relax and not give a flying fuck so long as you can understand the sentiment of what the author is trying to convey.
