I personally like it when people need to replace their "breaks."

Why can't f*&(king people spell? It annoys me a lot at work, a little bit less on the boards that I visit and even less on the Internet. However, if you sell something online or off - can't you give it your best effort to spell shit correctly??? WTF? Xion lights? Are you a Zionist or something? Wheater package? Is this BMW for the farmer who grows wheat? I'm pissed.

It no doubt annoys a lot of us,but we were recently reminded that some members have English as a 2nd or 3rd language,so we have to help them out.
What really gets to me is when English is the 1st language and it is distorted by using mobile phone message garbage.

I notice a lot of people uses "then" when they should be using "than" or maybe it's just me!

They say that if a Chinese Menu has many misspellings, the place is probably great.
