Common misspelled words

I thought it would be pretty interesting to see what things this community spells wrong. What I see pretty often is people spelling "definitely" as "defiantly." This annoys me and it hurts on the inside whenever I see it. No, your GPU is not defiantly future proof. What is it defying?

I see that. I blame it on the iPad. I don't want to fix it because the iPad is too slow.

Every word in the "American language". Because Americans generally neglect proofreading.

I really wish that we'd just make organic hardware already, that grows and adapts to the demands it needs to meet. That way, grannies' computers can be floppy sacks of organicness and the 12 year old Minecrafters will look like the guys that only do bicep curls, and the nerdy programmers will finally have justice, with their body-builder rigs that skipped leg day.

alot

that sound was really quite

i'm hear

i like how i don't do that???

 

Question mark misuse bothers me the most. Or when you send a lengthy text and they reply with a "?" and I get confused as to what confused them.

I once was a poor man, but then I found a crown.

allright instead of alright

 

alot instead of a lot

 

your and you're

 

to and too get mixed up often

 

its and it's

 

people generally putting apostrophes where they shouldn't be, for example Window's

 

The fact that Chrome has an American English spellchecker makes me second guess some words, which is annoying.

allright I agree with alot of you're points and your right on some of them. Time too got for a walk too China. its time to rock and roll. Also, Window's its a good operating system.

 

That's the best I could do.
