Your right, their seems to be a problem today with many peoples grasp of punctuation, grammer and spelling.
-
Yes, teacher. Teacher, you forgot to give us our homework for tonight!

i dont think i get what your talking about their. you know some people and theyre typing styles are just different not wrong. youre style is just as write as mine, you can understand it perfectly no? I can honestly say I invested way too much time into that, but I really don't feel like paying attention in class. It does boggle my mind when kids interchange their/they're/there, your/you're, passed/past, to/too continually. I've made typos, I get that it happens by accident, but all the time! My teacher would have slapped me if I made those mistakes after 10.

It's not that difficult for people who have a decent grasp of the English language, or who value clear communication. While we're talking, can we also add in the people who cannot discern a plural from a possessive? Grrrr.
-
I think you're looking for "they're" maybe...
-
It must be :) Good thing nobody used yore or they're incorrectly. It's good to grrrrrrrr sometimes.
-
It shouldn't be that difficult for those who grew up speaking English and learning the spelling and grammar. But do keep in mind that there are people all over the world on this site that English is a second language to them so they might not grasp all that as easily. Also if someone has a special learning problem like dyslexia these things do not come as easily to them. But I do understand how you feel.
-
I get annoyed/frustrated also, when people make these mistakes. What I've always wanted to know is: Since when did simple pluralised words have apostrophes put into them? :-)
-
What does ur mean then?
-
I hear ya...its (oops, I mean it's) one of my pet peaves.
-
I might be on your Grrrrr list there. I screw up sometimes :P:P
-
It's only the tip of the iceberg, figuratively speaking.
-
Is it also dificult for people to realize that "irregardless" isnt a word?
-
I don't find it difficult at all, but I got chewed out awhile ago by some ABers who thought it shouldn't matter.
-
It's not difficult for me.
-
Grr-ing again.
