pet peeves.

i may be a total nerd for saying this, but when i'm texting people and they don't use correct grammar, i want to kill myself. or, text back correcting their mistake, which would be social suicide. same outcome. i am no expert when it comes to grammar, but i know tomorrow isn't spelled "tomorow" and embarrassed is not spelled "embarassed". i also know when someone tells me, your so cool, which, duh, happens on a regular basis, i want to cringe inside. it's YOU APOSTROPHE R E. i don't care if we're texting and things are supposed to be shorthand, i'm pretty sure the vast majority of us have full keyboards. it would not kill us to take .3 extra seconds to spell things correctly. if a guy is trying to steal my heart, he has to know that bad grammar is a big turn off. it makes the person look uneducated, and when he's a senior, i want to feel like he's smarter than me. well, those are just some current frustrations. learn to use words write. rite. wright. ....right.
