Okay, so I love my mutual other (not going to get into specifics just because). However, I sort of have this problem whenever they send me a message. Most of the message is fine but there is at least one word that is not the right one to be used. For example: They meant to write, "I'm their butler." but actually wrote, "I'm there butler." This bugs me but I don't say anything.
How many of you have this problem?

OMG SAME HERE. Not even kidding. I love my boyo to death, but damn. He's horrible at spelling and homophones. rofl I'm like you though, I don't bring it up. XD When he's on the computer and I'm around though, he'll ask me how to spell certain things, so he's aware of it I think.
It works out though. He can't spell, and I confuse my left and my right still. X3

I don't think my mutual other knows I think this. I really could care less though, it's not liked it impacts me that much. However, if I see something that really (and I mean really!) irks me, I bring it up all smooth-like. Then I correct him and I feel better. Now that I look back on that, I'm a bit pathetic.

Heil Grammar.
Yep, I'm a Grammar Nazi. It irks me that some people are unable to use proper grammar and spelling. I understand if: a) The correct grammar is used in an odd fashion; b) They spell a long, complicated word wrong, just as long as it's obvious what the word is; or c) In a long series of writing, they only have one or two typos.
Then it gets me when the person with the bad grammar and spelling get angry with me for trying to correct them. stare

SSBBrawlerBitF Heil Grammar. Then it gets me when the person with the bad grammar and spelling get angry with me for trying to correct them. stare I hate when people get mad at me for that as well. It really bothers me that people don't know the difference between constructive and destructive criticism. It is very rare that give destructive. When I do, it's usually at the people who get mad and cuss me out.

I'm a well-known grammar fiend, so I complain about it openly. xD People don't really care.
It's funny, though, when we have to do peer grading and someone tries to grade an essay of mine and they say my grammar was incorrect somewhere, but it's actually correct xD That doesn't happen too often, though.

It happens. Do you count text abbreviations? Those aren't necessarily grammar, but I'd much prefer words spell out instead of numbers (even though it may cost more)

Lately I've been finding it somewhat insulting that Rps that look as though they have been thrown together in about ten minutes are usually far more successful than the well thought and planned literate Rps that have had at least two weeks work put into them, only to never go anywhere. Does anyone else feel this way as well?
