When someone doesn't bother to take the time to read over their post before hitting update and it is full of typos. I'm not talking about misspelled words, but the typos where someone hits the wrong letters, etc. I feel like, if you want me to take time to help you, you can take time to make your post readable. I've commented on this once, to a particularly egregeous poster, in a polite way, and she got all snippy with me. Now, if I see her post, I just scroll past, even if I know the answer to her question.
Peeve two (this is one of my general personal peeves), use of undefined indefinate pronouns. Don't start your post with "it". I don't know what it refers to. Example from today on knitting "can I make it with all stockenette". Make what?
Ok, bitching over.
(p.s. what's with LJ spell check not recognizing contractions?)
