  This is great - keep 'em coming people. (If I were at all creative I'd add my own - sorry).

  What grammatical errors bug you the most?

  for me it's the use of : .

  it's as a possessive - it's means "it is", so if you don't want to say "it is" don't use the apostrophe.

  there are others that bug me but this one is the worst.

  Hey Xena, I don't worry about this stuff - but it does tell me something about the other person. I don't worry about anything.

  Wednesday - I can accept misspelled words much more easily than improper grammer. When you speak spelling is irrelevant, but when you speak or write improper grammar is glaring.

  Yes, those are high on my list too, Sirona. An easy way to remember a few things:
  
  "There" contains the word "here" - the other "hear" contains the word "ear" - you hear with your ears
  "They're" - a contraction of "they are" - how hard is that to remember?
  Which leaves "their" - a possessive
  
  "To" - if you can audibly say "tuh" (rhymes with "the") and it makes sense, then use "to" rather than "too"

  When I was a kid I loved ketchup until I overdid it by eating a ketchup sandwich. Now I can only tolerate it on a hamburger, along with some mustard of course. On eggs though? What are you thinking? My sister-in-law will put it on steak - another abomination!
