If you’re a grammar, spelling and general word geek like me, you might enjoy this site. While they cover many common spelling and grammar errors, they haven’t yet covered one of my biggest pet peeves. So, let me! Attention Internetz! “Breath” and “breathe” are two different words! One is a noun. One is a verb. Use accordingly and carry on.

Take a deap breath.
You seriously crack me up. I go nuts with some of the grammar and spelling things I see, but yet, I have to admit I think I’m slipping. If you see somebody use too many commas too many times, you start to, do, it, yourself. Gah!

That is one of my biggest frustrations – I hate when people say ‘breath’ when they mean ‘breathe’.
Another one? When Someone Capitalizes Every Word In Their Post So It Reads Like A Title. I see this most on one of the forums I visit, but yeow – drives me batty every single time!

Yay for grammar geeks! I added it to my reader, but I think–maybe–those who really need it won’t be reading it. *sighs sadly*
