I don't mean to cause Chat Icon but I think it's kind of lame how many of you are peeved by people making spelling and grammatical mistakes.

I don't really think someone else's poor grasp of the English language should be annoying.

Idk- it's probably worthless for me to even throw this comment out there, but whatever, it's just my honest reaction...




I agree.

This is leisure to me. I type fast and move on. If I happen to notice an error I fix it, but if I don't, whateverChat Icon

This is not my job, I am not being graded.

I find it silly that people get so peeved about grammar on a message board.

You may not think so, but this is a pet peeve to some of us.

Why can't you (general YOU) speak properly even on in the Internet? I can't stand reading unintelligible posts. I am educated and I don't want to come across poorly because I choose to type in text speak or fail to use proper grammar for the sake of leisure.

Text speak IS annoying Chat Icon

I guess I am speaking more on general mistakes (like spelling msitake like this).

You are right, it is a "peeve" and you can't help what bothers you. I guess I just don't get it, kwim?

Re: Do you have LIF or internet related pet peeves?

I'm honestly asking, are people SERIOUSLY annoyed by such minutia on an internet chat board? I'm asking bc I honestly don't understand how that's possible?

I cannot imagine caring enough about something so irrelevant to be annoyed by it.

I don't know, maybe bc I just use this board more to pass the time, or for a good debate on hot topics, than as a serious part of my life.

haha

I think people CAN, but just don't care too. I personally, always have a million typos, or will use there instead of their, even though I know the difference. Its just an accident or bc I'm typing quickly. I'm educated and just really don't care how I come across on the internet. It's different IRL, at work, but on a message board....don't care.

Don't you know? People need to complain about anything and everything these days. Chat Icon Chat Icon

Do you remember those kids in school who played the french horn and cello (instead of the typical clarinet or violin) and were in a campaign race for class president in the 5th grade? They ALWAYS had to do the "bonus question" for extra points, even though they didn't need them? The kids who everyone copied classwork from? The kids who had carrot slices and "ants on a log" as a healthy snack during lunch?

Well, they grew up to be the LIF grammar and spelling police.

Chat Icon I'm partially kidding. Chat Icon Chat Icon

You know what else is a pet peeve?

People being lamely passive aggressive and ALSO stating they don't want to start drama but clearly do?

When someone who says that unintelligible posts with errors peeve them b/c they are "educated" and then use the term "passive aggressive" completely incorrectly! Oh and btw there are also errors in your post complaining about errors! Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon

So, please- this is a losing battle- and ding ding ding the "time to go home" bell just rang and I'm stepping away from the computer.

My LIF peeve would have to be the "I am leaving LIF" posts. You know the "fall-on-my-sword-you-are-so-mean-I'm-going-to-go-live-my-life-see ya--bye now-ok" messages.
Usually followed within 1 day by a post letting us know you're back. Chat Icon

Re: Do you have LIF or internet related pet peeves?

I read the first few responses but am not doing the other 207 at least not now..I suspect any I have were already mentioned. And there's probably some drama - Anyway... a minor one but everytime I see it I laugh out loud.

When someone posts some personal pics of their house or child or whatever and they HAVE TO say "Excuse the mess..." and then explain why there are 3 things on the dresser or floor that don't belong. I find it hard to believe everyone thinks everyone else's house is so perfect. Sure I dont really want to see people's nasty habits on display so it's better than the alternative but stop explaining the "mess" everyone. Just post and discuss whatever you wanted advice/kudos/feedback about.

Not neccesarily a pet "peeve' but more of a rudeness thing:

Someone asks a question , you answer it and then they quote someone else after you to say thank you Chat Icon
I'm not looking for a pat on the back- but rude is rude ..LOL

Or when you go through the trouble to find a link (or something) for someone and they ignore what you post and give a rude "Bump, anyone else?"

Yup, thats my "pet peeves " Chat Icon

People being lamely passive aggressive and ALSO stating they don't want to start drama but clearly do?
