Lose/Loose.
For the love of all that is sacred, people, learn the difference because you look uneducated when you get it wrong.
There have been SO many instances of "I need to loose 'X amount' of pounds," and it's difficult not to correct them. Unless they're going to take those pounds and release them on other people like they're setting the hounds on them - it's LOSE, not loose.
Ok, I'll stop blathering now. Just...come on. Please.

Not enough caffeine, yet
I read that as "pet pee"....and I thought why would you make a pet of your urine?
I'll leave now. |

I now what your talking about. Its like, by a dictionary or something! But don't worry, we awl knead to get these things off of our chests every once in a while. I'm sure there's a hole lot of folks who understand exactly wear your coming from. It would be grate if more folks took the time to check they're work like us. Sad, aren't it?
