They’re, Their, and There.

Is this so hard to figure out? I can’t remember the exact year of elementary school that this was pounded into my brain along with the two different spellings and uses of you’re/your, but I know that I immediately think less of someone when i notice they are making such inexcusable elementary errors. No lie, you have to be stupid to not understand the differences, and you have to be even dumber still to try to shrug it off by claiming “it doesn’t matter.” While we’re at it, the term “no one” is actually two separate words. What about “noone” looks correct to you? That’s right, nothing. Also, “a lot” is two separate words unless you’re talking about the verb “to allot.” Think about what you’re saying, there is A LOT of something. This is basic common sense and if you can’t grasp it then i really hope you never claim to be intelligent, because you’re not.
