People who can't spell!!!!!

It's for sale, not for sell.

This Facebook find was a gem.

Throw in the folks that can't spell "Kubota", even when their post has a picture of the equipment with a huge sticker that clearly shows how it's spelled and they still manage to type something stupid like "Kabota" or similar.

Yep. There are so many dumbasses in this world. I'm one of them occasionally. But, usually not purposely.

People also can't spell.

Scrap = scarp, scrape
Their/there/they're
Etc.

Maybe we should care more about learning than testing in public schools. We're turning out a bunch of dumbasses.

Those who go to college - most of the students I encounter can't read simple directions or critically think. I proctor online tests during the summer, and 25-50% can't get into Zoom the way they are supposed to even though it is typed in the email they receive.

Must of

How many people actually say must of, vs the ones that really run must've together?

So you actually don't like must've?

"Where are you at?"
I even hear journalists say this. It's like nails down a chalkboard to me.

Preach it!!!

Good vs well. I don't understand college educated people who just can't grasp it. "I slept good" grates my nerves.

"I had went" to the store. Just awful. Have Has or Had people! Learn the tenses.

Abortion of…. That's over the top for me.

This is a great thread but need the old man yells at cloud picture in here somewhere.

Here is mine.

I say, "thank you"

They respond, "of course"

What's wrong with "you're welcome"????

Your boomer is showing. My in laws are the same way.

It's hard for my age group because people younger than us think you're welcome is condescending. And people older than us think no worries is rude.

"truth to power"

"rest in power"

Right

You know what I'm saying

"Heard"

"I have an ask"

No, you have a question, dip*****

"Your spend is going to be…"

I'm not spending anything with you because you're a moron. Next?

And all the other verb/noun confusion. When did this ridiculous BS start?

One thing I loved about the Corps of my time, was that no one let you get away with stuff. Any time a variation of this phrase was said in a meeting, you could expect a chorus of

"TOO LATE!"

I guess this is just me, as we've done 6 pages and it hasn't come up.

Things don't happen "on accident ".

They happen "accidentally ".

The former annoys the crap out of me

"Near miss".

We call that a collision.

"Do work" is the dumbest saying ever. I hear parents yell it at their kids during sporting events.

I spent a lot of time at the office pondering this saying. "Near miss" is an accident. Like, "oh damn, you nearly missed it!!! So close to being an "unaccident"!"


Maybe "near-miss" would be better? I don't know. I'd prefer a "NFU"…Near **** Up.

Yelling "Let's go" after doing something cool or scoring or winning or whatever. You literally just went.

In my mind it can make sense if it is interpreted as a miss that was near the target vs. a miss that was far from the target.

"My bad"

"Reclaiming my time."

Football players that say "I am workin on my craft". Just say I am working hard to improve my skill level. Craft?

Also coaches saying "trust the process"

Yeah, that's worked out well for us!

Paradigm shift annoys me.

Maybe they get their locker decorations from Hobby Lobby

If I had more stars, I would gladly give them Canyon!
