The most misspelled word on forums...

[Flash Gordon]

Me too!

I never plan on becoming a secretary....urrrr administrative assistant anyways

One that drives me just bonkers is break vs. brake. Don't see it as much here, but this is not the forum for those kinds of issues.

Nothing like "My breaks don't work well, what's wrong?" Or "I hate when "I brake something fixing something else."

Camero vs Camaro is another one.

I'm a huge grammar nazi, so I definitely notice when someone misspells a word or uses the incorrect form of a word. I understand we're only human and we make mistakes, so that doesn't really bother me.

The one thing I do hate however, is ghetto speak. Or when people purposely misspell words because they're lazy or they're just clueless.

i think you should also use a comma before "however"

^^^^^^^^

Because I was a little clumsy, I was forced to discard my Nikon S70 camero.

I may be mistaken, but shouldn't the i in your post be capitalized?

And to, too and two...

I make all these mistakes all the time. I know the difference but sometimes my fingers type faster than I think and spell check just checks to make sure the word is spelled correctly, not if it's the correct word.

Another set of words that get by spell check is form and from, it's easy to mistype the word but if they are spelled correctly then spell check doesn't flag them.

This is my exact problem, my brain thinks at 50 wpm and yet my fingers type at 75 wpm lol.

yes, you are mistaken. capitalizing is against my religion.
