Re: Pet Peeves?

Re: Pet Peeves?

So I have to use my time in the US to vent my peeves on here? But I'm too busy when I'm there and have more time while I'm here in the UK.
Besides, it's more stereotypically correct moan while I'm...

Re: Pet Peeves?

Ah I'm not saying one is more correct than the other.. just that I spell it one way which is correct and that's how I want it when I type it. I don't want a spellchecker telling me I'm wrong about...

I'm not in the US.
I don't have a job in the US.
I communicate...

Re: Pet Peeves?

My bloody spellchecker telling me that I need to remove the letter 'u' from words and trying to make me replace the 's' with a 'z' in others.

Re: Pet Peeves?

I'm not asking you (or anyone else) to be 'peeved' by it, I wasn't aware that was the point of this thread.
