I've got it, folks, the most irritating mistake on the internet:
"REDICULOUS."
Note the first vowel is not E!!! It's I!!!
Rediculous is not a word. Stop trying to make it become one.
I tell you, the spelling is completely ridiculous.

i think hotchkins is coming up more often now....
hotchki's people... where the hell did you guys get the "n"? i mean... typos more acceptable is hotchki;s... but "n"? that's a bit far for a finger to accidently slip on.

****...well, I guess that one is on purpose.
The their/they're/there bothers me everywhere I see it.
I also hate seeing store signs that say:
SPECIAL!!! 1$
The best was when Arby's introduced the Market Fresh sandwiches.
The sign on the local store said:
TRY OUR NEW MF SANDWICHES

You know what bugs me about spelling?
The difference between british english and american english.
EXAMPLES
tyre/tire, colour/color, organise/organize, realise/realize, flavour/flavor, car park/ parking lot, flat/apartment (ok the last two arent spelling but are examples of the same differences)
also dates
today is 09/05/06 in the UK but 05/09/06 in the US?
BTW i dont think one is better than the other but if I dont use a spell check at work I look like an idiot .
