I didn't loose my keys, I didn't loose my book, buy I am going to loose my mind if I see LOSE spelled that way one more time.

Just a weird pet peeve.

sounds like a PetePeeve to me...that was funny...and I can say that and not loose my head for it, because I too am a version of Pete...

Can we shriek about apostrophes?

"Boy's" does NOT mean "more than one boy."

Rarrr! Hiss!!!

Which: What particular one or ones, The one or ones previously mentioned or implied, specifically

Witch: A woman claiming or popularly believed to possess magical powers and practice sorcery, A believer or follower of Wicca; a Wiccan, A hag

Wich: Ain't a friggin' word!...At least not one in my day-to-day vocab! But if you're interested - lol

They're: Contraction of they are

Their: The possessive form of they

It's: Contractrion of it is

if it does not sound like it could be read as "it is" then you should right it down as "its"...

HAHAHA I should have posted a new thread like this, because this has been a pet peeve of mine for years. I still to this day can't believe how many people misspell the word LOSE.

it sounds like an Omega Pet Peeve to me...

I believe

Lose - fail, misplace.

Loose - set free, unleash, relaxed
