There – a place, over there
Their – they own it, it’s their’s
They’re – abbreviation of they are, they’re over there

I didn't think there/their/they're spelling Nazi's on here! but some of us are cursed with compulsive correctiveness in spelling and grammar, I can't help it, I notice everything. I can walk by someones comuter at work and hardly glance at it, then say "you mispelled something" it is a curse.
to and too are another pair of peeves.

I often wonder why a handful of people on here find it necessary to correct peoples spelling all of the time? Is life that dull and boring or does it make them feel better knowing they have better grammar skills? It seems kind of petty and lame. This is a boating forum not grammer.com forums. :rolleyes:

Will you please explain this to my brain dead assistant. Here is a true story. She was making a list for Staples and we needed scissors. She spelled them "sizzers". No kidding.

I didn't single anyone out, I was just having a little fun with one of my pet peeves. (I've seen some non-boating peeves posted) Like you said, it's just the 'net don't take it all personal and shit;)
And yes, I'm some goofy wack job that notices that crap, and it drives me nuts that I notice it. If that makes sense :confused:

No, not political. On the east coast a wink in this context would mean that I was kidding, which I was. I was just messing with the three words in question.

I noticed that this board is active. I post on few [mainly] east coast boards but you guys post circles around them. I would be able to post more if my job didn't keep interfering with my fun.
