I don't care if you can't spell—try your best and we'll figure it out—but these mistakes make me cringe.

  • writing plurals with -'s, as in "All shirt's are on sale."
    • How did this become so pervasive? Argggghhh.
  • confusing "your" and "you're"
    • It's really not that hard. Just think about it.
  • confusing "their," "there," and "they're"
    • Same as above.
  • confusing "are" and "our"
    • I don't even know what to say about this one...
  • adding "of" at the end of verbs, as in "should of"
    • It's "should've," as in "should have"!
