Opinion: Cliché behavior

We all have them… things that happen or stuff other people do that just chap our behinds. They can be as simple as the mispronunciation of a word or its incorrect spelling.

I have multiple pet peeves, both those written as opposed to those spoken. The advent of spell check should eliminate the occurrence of misspelled words. But beware of total reliance on the Goddess of Correct Spelling. She is a tricky one.

The troublesome triplets are the first error she will maliciously insert on your page. We have all encountered: to, two and too and its brothers, there, their and they’re.
