The Official Bad Grammar Thread
Posted on 2/23/18 at 1:52 pm
Posted on 2/23/18 at 1:52 pm
I've been keeping a list of bad grammar on message boards for about a year now. It's time to unload some.
I shouldn't have to add the correct word in parentheses, but most of the words/phrases came from posters on this site, so...
He nipped it in the butt (bud)
Its taken its told (toll)
We have the most rabbit fan base (rabid)
It's been flying around the rumor meal (mill)
It's the cream of the crock (crop)
They just tied the not (knot)
The pilot was injected from plane (ejected)
Take it with a grade salt (grain)
He's the laughing stalk of the conference (stock)
It happens timing again (time and again)
We always take it for granite (granted)
He’s gonna be find (fined)
He's a working progress (work in)
He'll be raped over the coals (raked)
With all do respect (due)
It's a mute point (moot)
We control our own density (destiny)
It's a four gone conclusion (foregone)
It's a doggie dog world (dog-eat-dog)
She's a pre-Madonna (prima donna)
This happens weekend weekout (week in, week out)
Men can't multytask (multitask)
In times passed (past)
You'll need more bandwith (bandwidth)
We need to home in on this player (hone)
In this day in age (and age)
He lost his self of steam (esteem)
He's ahead of the curb (curve)
Coach threw him under the bust (bus)
It never seizes to amaze me (ceases)
It's all smoking mirrors (smoke and)
He's chomping at the bic (champing at the bit)
Stop budding into my business (butting)
The steaks are high (stakes)
He’s a duel threat (dual)
TPOS is a waist of space (waste)
Can you site your source (cite)
He’s ranked hire (higher)
Espn is the worse (worst)
That’s retarted (retarded)
That video was very nastalgic (nostalgic)
Just my too sense (two cents)
He's followed by a sloo of people (slew)
The cops were in per suit (pursuit)
He's the hunter and we're the pray (prey)
New Iberia hair dews (do's)
Don’t cry over split milk (spilled)
He's an affeminate dude (effeminate)
There's been a paradime shift (paradigm)
He was in the Marine core (corps)
He'll hit the ground run in (running)
I need to touch bass with you (base)
Sorry for your lost (loss)
He was the loan defender (lone)
On the flip side of the corn (coin
He awoke from a comma (coma)
Put it on the dest (desk)
I could of done this (could've)
Your a moran. (you're/moron)
That guy is amphibious...he can hit both ways (ambidextrous)
I'm trackting the storm (tracking)
Blessing in the skies (disguise)
Would of been (have; would've)
Most dominate player (dominant)
The boss will eat their arse out (chew)
not tooken lightly (taken)
1995 camaro FOR SELL (sale)
The business is close down (closed)
It was a good deal, but the guy barked at it. (balk)
Truth is we don't need another premedana. (prima donna)
I left off a bunch of common misspellings like theirs/there's, your/you're, too/two, are/or etc...
Bookmark and add to the list as you find them.

Allow me to play doubles advocate here for a moment. For all intensive purposes I think you are wrong. In an age where false morals are a diamond dozen, true virtues are a blessing in the skies. We often put our false morality on a petal stool like a bunch of pre-Madonnas, but you all seem to be taking something very valuable for granite. So I ask of you to mustard up all the strength you can because it is a doggy dog world out there. Although there is some merit to what you are saying it seems like you have a huge ship on your shoulder. In your argument you seem to throw everything in but the kids Nsync, and even though you are having a feel day with this I am here to bring you back into reality. I have a sick sense when it comes to these types of things. It is almost spooky, because I cannot turn a blonde eye to these glaring flaws in your rhetoric. I have zero taller ants when it comes to people spouting out hate in the name of moral righteousness. You just need to remember what comes around is all around, and when supply and command fails you will be the first to go.
Make my words, when you get down to brass stacks it doesn't take rocket appliances to get two birds stoned at once. It's clear who makes the pants in this relationship, and sometimes you just have to swallow your prize and accept the facts. You might have to come to this conclusion through denial and error but I swear on my mother's mating name that when you put the petal to the medal you will pass with flying carpets like it’s a peach of cake.
