Do you ever cringe when you see that you used the wrong type of "there" in something you just wrote?

    YES. I'm quite the grammar nazi when it comes to what I spell.

    Yes even though I I spell a lot of things wrong, it annoys me

    I dont spell wrong because I am illiterate but because I am in a hurry!

    It's not the end of the world though. I wrote asking mail or female and when I saw it printed in my question I just laughed.

    Yes, especially if it's in the middle of a big argument where I'm making really good points.

    Ugh, totally.

    But that never happens unless I was extremely tired.

    And when someone corrects me, I'm like, "I SWEAR TO GOD, I... I... UGGGHHHH!"

    And I always want to punch someone in the face when they use they're, there, or their wrong, and "your" and "you're" wrong. Especially when they say something like, "You're book is with me."

    yes, especially since it annoys me so much. I want to slap people who use the wrong "there" or confuse "where" and "were". I usually catch it pretty fast though, save myself the embarrassment.
