Stop! Pointing out peoples spelling mistakes. It's petty and boring if you know what they meant to say don't be so anal about it. I use my i phone most of the time and my big sausage fingers sometimes hit the wrong letter or the thing predicts the wrong word. I can't be bothered to correct the grammar so please stop! being so pathetic.
 
The apostrophe you've put in johnson's is a possessive one, and yet you mean johnsons to be plural; therefore no apostrophe needed.

Sorry to be so anal!!!
 
'peoples' would actually require an apostrophe as it is stating ownership so should look like this - people's
 
Thought the exclamation mark would flush out the grammar police, forgot to add a spelling mistake. Some of you have too much time on your hands.
 
It's hardly important if people stumble over grammar or spelling on a fans forum is it? The medium is all about speedy communication of ideas so as long as the idea is intelligible who gives a fuck about the punctuation?

As with many things in life the present is always tense whilst the past is usually perfect.

That's kind of why people mention it. You can't be bothered to write the language that we've all agreed upon. Selfish bastard.

People do it because it gets other people so annoyed that they feel the need to make a whole thread on it. Don't go on about it and it WONT HAPPEN OK?
It doesn't mean people are sad just because they are educated and know how to spell properly.
