I count eight errors in Pat's sentence. Pretty sure that was deliberate in order to make his point.

"If it was a simple typo, I’d agree with fat fingers. Some words sound the same but are spelled differently, and are misused. Had that drilled for many years.
Just my pet peeve."
People who feel the need to correct or complain about other people's grammar and spelling errors are very small minded people.

People who are too lazy to learn and use their own language correctly are ignorant boobs who can't communicate.

Being able to communicate effectively in one's native language is important but being able to win internet arguments is importanter.

People who feel the need to correct or complain about other people's grammar and spelling errors are very small minded people. Right. Yet not as small minded as those who need to complain about a post on an open Internet forum. Good job!
