You know what? The YOUR vs. YOU'RE thing really pisses me off.

I think that society's grammar is being shoved down the crapper. Yes, that's right- especially the guys'. Most of the little boys I have come in contact with can't even talk correctly, let alone write/type with correct grammar. It's really a sad thing, and what's even sadder is that I've found that there's nothing I can do to help them!
You know what else is starting to PISS ME OFF? msn/aim/e-mail slang, for example, l8er. I mean, we've graduated from middle school, haven't we?
I don't necessarily think people are simply lazy. They are truly unaware of the mistakes they make day by day in their writing. Also, the grammar problems don't just stop at your/you're and to/too. People have problems with then/than, there/they're/their, and who/whom, not to mention with spelling words like museum and psychic. GIVE ME A BREAK! I think colleges need to figure out some way to check for this problem so that schools can eradicate the bad grammar epidemic asap!

ugh. Damn anime otakus. They need a bit more schooling before representing their caste. Because I currently hate all otakus I come in contact with (minus a select few, me included. :P) with a vengence.
