Smitty, “looser” is probably my biggest peeve.
I generally don’t call out others’ errors either, even if they repeat the same ones, (which tells me they think it’s the proper spelling/usage, as opposed to the random typo).
Jan, I just noticed within the past couple of months, or so, that I not only have the spellcheck that’s been on my system forever, but also usage correction suggestions. The little squiggly “you screwed up” underline seems to be a bit different; perhaps lighter, or something.
Dunno if it’s a Browser (Chrome) thingy, or an OS (W7) thingy, though.
Oh, once in awhile I can’t help but give a bad time to somebody, if they make a typo that turned out comical. ;-)
I think I’ve even sent e-mails to people whose addys I have, if their typo ended up appearing to be offensive, if taken at face value.
