"I'm board." "It's not fare." "There annoying the piss out of me."
FUCKING GO BACK TO ENGLISH CLASS, WILL YOU. USE A DICTIONARY. SOMETHING.
Board: "a piece of wood sawed thin, and of considerable length and breadth compared with the thickness."
Bored: "to weary by dullness, tedious repetition, unwelcome attentions, etc."
Fare: "something offered to the public, for entertainment, enjoyment, consumption, etc."
Fair: "free from bias, dishonesty, or injustice."
There: "in or at that place (opposed to here)."
They're: "contraction of the words 'they' and 'are'. It can never be used as a modifier, only as a subject (who or what does the action) and verb (the action itself)."
Their: "shows possession."
I am so fucking sick and tired of seeing these idiotic errors. I can understand one here and here but fucking CONSISTENTLY? EVEN MY MOTHER KNOWS HOW TO USE ALL OF THESE WORDS PROPERLY AND THEN SOME AND SHE HAS AN 8TH GRADE EDUCATION: SHE'S NOT EVEN AT A HIGH SCHOOL READING LEVEL. THIS SHIT IS ELEMENTARY, YA'LL.

Not meant to offend . . . it just seems like everywhere I turn, people are making some of the stupidest grammatical errors. Am I holier than thou when it comes to this? Of course not, but to make the same mistake consistently after you've been corrected how many times? It's just a pet peeve of mine.
