I was gonna call you out on 18 years being way too long ago... Then I realized that 2005 was, in fact, 18 years ago. I feel old now.

It's good to see people's feelings of superiority have carried over from Reddit.

Your weary welkome

[–] Gullible 15 points 1 year ago

I like never reading “should of”, as well. Every browser and phone’s autocorrect aggressively suggests a correction to “have.” Sometimes you don’t notice an apostrophe appearing in the middle of a word, so I can forgive “it’s,” but there’s little excuse for fighting with autocorrect to write “should of.”

[–] PearlsSwineEtc 14 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) (1 children)

Correct grammar is remarkable; its' place is here!

[–] InverseParallax 7 points 1 year ago

I don't get it, its not that hard, each word has it's proper grammar and usage.

[–] davconde 7 points 1 year ago

For real, its not that hard to get it right.

[–] null_ 6 points 1 year ago

Fewer mobile users maybe? For whatever reason, autocorrect/autocomplete suggestions on iOS always tries to add inappropriate apostrophes to plural words. Without fail, every single time. I sometimes reflexively tap the autocomplete suggestion to finish longer words and it’s really aggravating.

Because there is a higher barrier of entry, people know what they are doing. That's a good thing.
