C'mon guys..."YOUR LAZY"??? Your is a possessive pronoun. What, pray tell, is a "lazy" and how do I own one?

I've come to expect the frustrating YOUR/YOU'RE mixup from most individuals who really don't care too much about the English language, but not from a site run by journalists!!!
*rolling eyes My god! How dare they!
I was thinking the same thing, tombstone81.
Me too. Spell check is dumbing down the world. Their! There not going to like what i said about they're grammar!
Perhaps sending an email to the editor would be more affective than ranting in the comments?
RUEZ. Gotta vent and feel superior at the same time. "Your" welcome.
Holy ANAL.
First it was the wood burning Fairy, then it was the anti Idling Fairy, and now it’s the Word Fairy
The people at 0-250 must just sit back and laugh,it's the only complaint you can make.
Touchy touchy people. What's the matter with a little grammar and spelling? After all, no one is asking for perfection here. Lord knows my own could use work, but feel fre to call me if I use the wrong 'there' or 'your' or 'to'.
ha ha! My wife just pointed out that i wrote 'poor' instead of 'pour' in one of my posts! A typo, but it still counts!
The English language is forever changing. Look how many new words they have added to the dictionary for instance. Just listen to the young people speak. If you think that the young give a rats bum about the OLD FASHIONED English language then you are fooling yourself. They are the ones who will change it and there is nothing you or anyone else can do about it. I even hear older people using the new English that the young have created. The world of texting has created short forms of most major words as well as becoming universal.

I have always thought that human spell checkers never see the information intended by the BAD PERSON who spelt something wrong or used the wrong word. Those who feel the need to be the spelling police obviously have nothing to contribute to the topic posed. :}

I thank my English teacher in high school for teaching me how talk good and type good, two! Sure hope it doesn't cast aspersians on my litteracy. Heven fourbid.
