    BREATHE*

    More and more words are apparently becoming to hard to use correctly for a big part of people online. This is one that I almost never saw anyone getting wrong until a couple of years ago and it’s becoming more and more common, same with writing “cloth/cloths” instead of “clothe/clothes”. It’s infuriating.

        The advantage of spelling correctly is people actually do understand you. When you use the wrong word it moves focus from your joke and onto the word that is hard to parse

        Sometimes, yeah. Other times I have to re read the sentence two or three times before I figure out what it’s supposed to say.

        So yeah, basically fuck off with your “gRaMaR fAsCiSt” shit if you actually want to be understood.
