Who cares how people type. As long as you understand it and get the point its ok.

Don't worry I know how you feel! I cringe every time I hear something that is so obviously grammatically incorrect! At school I would hear all kinds of things like, "Where did you bought that?" or "That's more better." It drives me freakin insane! So yes, it's very very normal...at least to me.

Once a person is of an able academic age, there is simply no excuse for poor spelling, punctuation or grammatical construction when writing. This is of course key to the point - written work differs greatly from spoken words. For example, an educated young man from Yorkshire may write "Mum, could you please leave me some money for when you're out?", wheras he may say, "Mum, giv's few bob 'fore yer go."

I completely agree.
I can't understand why people don't spell check... It's ok not to know how to spell everything, but why would you post something online, in an e-mail, etc. if you are unsure if you spelled it correctly?

Drives me nuts.

haha i hate that it pisses me off when people cant talk/spell right!

Most of the time I can never understand what my younger brother says and writes, I would ask him some times to translate for me lol

Too bad you can't speak properly either.

Well William Safire, normal, no. Still I sympathize with you, as I too, hate incorrect speech. One should say what they mean, and say it in a way that one does not need to decode the horribly incorrect gibberish that passes for English these days.

You'll go mad if you let this one bother you much. It may have happened already if you're writing down all the poor grammar you come across. As an editor, I try to keep my disdain limited to those who claim to be professionals. I particulary love it when correct you when you've said something right, e.g., "They gave Sally and me a gift," and the stupid person (to use your word) believes you should incorrectly say "Sally and I." Stupid person, you don't give "I" a gift.
