I majored in English, don't even get me started!  I went so far as to join a group on Facebook called "I know the difference between there, their, and they're."  I also joined "I picked a major I like and someday I will live in a box."

I joined the "I judge you when you use poor grammar" group.

LOL. I don't judge people with poor spelling or grammar, it just makes it hard for me to take you seriously. I know they teach this stuff in schools so I find it hard to believe that people aren't at least being exposed to it since attending some kind of school is required by law in this country.  And on a forum that is about Greek Life (which equates to people in college or who have graduated from college), finding bad spelling or grammar is even more surprising to me.

Then sweetie, you might want to check your own posts for typos. Especially since you have graduated form college. Just teasing! I know exactly what you mean.

^^^I'm with you. Now Earpus wants to send me to Hell for my criticism. I need a good tan these days, anyway!
My other pet peeves: - "a lot" are two words, not one
- to, too and two
- ain't (don't go there)
- "we was"
- "y'all guys" -- the plural is either You or Y'all, for both Southerners and Northerners

I'm in that group, too. I also have a shirt that says "Your retarded". I laugh to myself when people are like "OMG that's soooo funny, your shirt says I'm retarded." That's not the joke dumbass.
