I use Grammarly. So if it is wrong, I blame them.

How stupid is the title for this thread? I bet 3/4 of you don't get it. Here is how I know....

It seems everyday, most posts get the use of to and too....which equals fore btw....wrong. the following are examples of proper usage of each word.

I am going TO the store.

My wife is going TOO.

We had TO wait in line TO get in because the store can not have TOO many people in it. It seems that many Americans piss themselves when someone coughs in public nowadays. This leaves the store extra space TO mop the floor before we get in.


The battle is yours to loose my friend because people aren't created equally. We hold these truths to be self evident that all men are obviously not.

The Declaration of Independence is a propaganda piece from the 1700's. All men should be treated equally.

This is why Capitalism is so successful. People have to be dumb or gullible enough to be convinced to waste their money.

I can't complain too much about all this though. I make supplemental income for our household mainly out of knowing the difference between all of these and knowing how to fix them so that other people don't look dumb.

Now when I come here, I frankly don't much care because it's not my job anymore. So I know I make mistakes. Sometimes, I catch them; sometimes, I don't. And if I don't, I don't always care enough to go back and fix them. That's an awful lot like ... work. Do it for more than 10 years, and you'll understand where I am coming from.

Yes, I am usually just a paid grammar Nazi.

Are you ever going “to” get “to” the point?


He's fixing to. Just wait.

I thought I got to the point....people do not know English anymore. It pisses me off.

Quoted for irony.

Frakking priceless. Good eye. I missed it and normally am way too sensitive to words and that one in particular.
