Wish someone would come up with this for effect and affect. I'd even be ok with the interpositional emphasis contained on this poster. It would help me remember.

Commonly, the possessive "its" gets confused with the contraction "it's".

"Your* kind attention is appreciated."

Everyone on the internet knows the contraction for "you are" is "U R".

btw BP, you misspelled Pessimist a post or two ago. ;)

Yeah, that "loosing" one drives me up the wall more than any other ones put together.

I have seen some really brilliant posts before that I was really liking, until I run into that.

Fifteen demerit points right off the top.

Don't forget effect and affect. To really confuse things, you can also effect change that can affect generations yet unborn.
