Lots of complaints here about Newspeak and illiterate hipster text talk and I am in full agreement with all of that. Yes, language evolves and today's rap may be tomorrow's academic research paper but the most excruciating crimes against grammar come from those too stupid, too ignorant, and too lazy to use it correctly. All of this offends me but what I encounter the most, here on Geekzone, in newspapers that should know better, and everywhere else, are the spelling and homonym hurdles that even the intelligent and educated keep crashing over. There is not the same as their. It is not the same as they're. And there is a big difference between now and know. These and the many others like them are what really drive me crazy. The brainless catch phrases cited here are certainly irritating, but the endless stream of proofreading errors from people who can't be bothered to go back and check what they have just written, or even use a spelling checker to at least weed out the worst transgressions (though even this is no help for the homonym-challenged), are like Chinese water torture, an endless accumulation of small insults that combine to overwhelm the sensibilities of all six of us left in the world who actually notice this kind of thing and care about it. I make all of these mistakes and more, but at least I check my pearls before casting them to the swine. Sloppy writing comes from sloppy thinking and that is the real crime.
