It's Infiniti not Infinity! I think it's pathetic that people on eBay can't spell the name of their own car. I've seen it on the forum as well.

It's brakes not breaks! Brakes are on cars/bikes/anything with wheels, and they stop the object from moving. Breaks.. there's not such thing! Something can break, which is to fall apart or lose it's original form.

I'm pretty sure there are other things, I just don't remember. This has been on my mind for a while, had to vent a bit. Anyone?

It's tint, not "tints".

 

Welcome to the wide world of the United States' public education system.

 

lol, yeah it's a pet peeve of mine also, but i don't bother

 

Okay, it's Photoshop, not Photochop, being a graphic artist, I cringe every time I see it called that, probably have no idea what the real program can do!

My spelling peeve!

 

My big peeve is spelling also, but sometimes people are in a hurry and probably type a little too quickly. But when people purposely spell incorrectly, I just.... arghh , who cares.

 

The spelling can be bad sometimes, but it happens accidently. What annoys the hell out of me is when people do the stupid thing of alternating capitalization of letters and try to talk ghetto. Its hard enough reading it but then you have to decipher is like its hieroglyphics.

 

I gave up a while back. My biggest pet peeve - and quite shocking actually - is how many people on the forum can't seem to grasp something as simple as "there" vs "their" vs "they're". I thought we learned this by age 7, I guess the softies decided to challenge students a bit less these days...

 

its gimp! not photoshop!!

nah, just kidding

 

i agree. i guess some people don't care and some don't know.

their = it belongs to them
example: that is their car.

they"re = they are
example: they're not going to the meet.

there = designation of position or situation
examples: there is my car. there is no way i'm driving.

 

Ok, first of all: I agree with you, but because this is such an informal setting I just roll with it. The one that drives me crazy is "bumber" instead of "bumper."

Second, since you started this, you're fair game :
In this usage the word "its" is a possessive pronoun, and should have no apostrophe.


This, I imagine, was just a typo. You're forgiven.

And no fair going back and editing your post to fix it!

 

you're not your...

they're not they"re

 

I thought Photochop was a term used for modifying an original car photo to your own chopped version...usually using Photoshop or something similar...

 

+1. I was thinking the same.
