anyway? no no

Three for Thursday

Onesome: Ain't- There's a lot of slang floating around out there. Some of it has even found its way into the dictionary. Is there any one word
that you find more annoying than others? That you just wish would fall off the face of the planet, never to be heard again? none

Twosome: It- It's/Its, they're/their/there. Just a few of the most commonly misspelled words in the English language. So the question is, when you
blog, do you worry about grammar, punctuation and spelling? If you notice a typo do you go back and edit? Or do you shrug it off because everyone makes typos? 
I try to correct it especially at work.

Threesome: Purty?- Purty/pretty, crick/creek, warsh/wash. All common pronunciations, whether they sound pretty or not. And one is
mispronounced. What's one commonly mispronounced word that just drives you nuts? warsh
