    omg, yes, that annoys the crap outta me. its rediculous how many people actually write "sell" instead of "sale". another that really aggravates me is someone using "your" when they need to use "you're".
    also, when people confuse "their, they're and there" AUGH!

    technically it's a spelling error, not a grammar error, but it bugs me how often I see questions asking: "how can I 'loose' some weight?"

    Chaser, that's not a grammar error, it's a spelling error.
