Day 2 Ohhhh Yeahhh

I think the rest of the hates will be in no particular order from now on, although this one is pretty bad.  Now that I think about it, all of them are pretty bad.

Hate: Incorrect usage of there, their, they're, your, you're, then, than. Really?  Pleaseee.  It is so embarrassing for both of us (although you may not have known until now) when you obviously don't know which to use, or that you just don't know the other forms exist.  On a day to day basis, I generally converse with people who are at least in college.  How do they not know??  It's baffling and it makes me think you're (a contraction for "you are") an idiot.  If you are using these incorrectly, believe me, everyone hates you for it and at the very least you need to look at this- http://theoatmeal.com/comics/misspelling.  

For some people, just reading it isn't enough and you need to buy that poster.  Seriously.  While you're at it, fix the rest of the mistakes highlighted on that page since you're probably having trouble with that grammar as well.  Once you think you've got it down, here are some worksheets and quizzes for you to practice on-

Notice the bright colors and illustrations?  These were meant for 3rd graders.  Get your shit together.

Whew! That was a little longwinded.  I got a little riled up there.  Now I need to love.

Love: Songs that promote clapping.  I just love to clap along.  Every song should have a small break dedicated to the audience clapping.  A good example would be in "I Believe in a Thing Called Love" by The Darkness, that is a fabulous clapping song.  Maybe it's because I'm the whitest, who knows, but I can't get enough.


Hahaha, the love is kind of lost in a sea of that long ass hate, but it's important all the same!

LOVE,
