KEVO CURSE!
You've been warned.

'would've' and 'should've' are both contractions, I'd wager that when we learn to write English the teach focuses much more on formal writing (essay writing etc...) where you simply don't use them.
Also writing quickly and informally is the norm now so people are writing without thinking and without checking. Same thing as 'your'/you're' and the correct use of 'it's' and 'its'. I make tonnes of mistakes when I type on forums, for example, because I'm just too lazy to make sure I haven't.
Eric Portapotty
But how the hell does 'of' come into play? Surely it's 'have'?
Ninja
Sounds similar.
I'd also say its a mistake that people that learn English has a foreign language would be less likely to make because you have a better grasp on how to structure sentences.
You know that structurally 'could of' doesn't make sense because 'of' is not a verb. If you learn as you do when you're a young child then you don't have any sense of why the words go where they go you just know it sounds right, especially the way we're taught English in school.

So basically you guys learn to speak before you write, I see.
Thanks.
Ninja
Surely its the same for your mother tongue as well?
Eric Portapotty
Mandarin doesn't quite work the same way I guess.
Learning English is compulsory here as well though, which is why I was surprised 'should of' was so common.

In some shit holes over here some people don't even bother to learn how to speak.

If I typed how I actually spoke I'd have been sectioned by now I think.

There's been a few articles in Sweden this summer about how attention whoring cunts with mobile phones blocking and disturbing rescue services at accidents has become a growing problem. People are more concerned about taking pictures and filming than helping.

Blimey that's a depressing thought.
Its a worrying trend that this need for relentless documentation has overtaken everything else. Its bad enough that so many people are so self-absorbed that they need to put a photo of themselves up on social media every few hours, or that crowds are always full of smartphone wielders. But its ridiculous that people feel the need for this above both empathy for fellow man, or for self-preservation.

I get that a lot of people don't like spicy food, but surely as soon as you describe it as unbearably hot the average person isn't going to buy it.
My newest and latest annoyance with this is the Doritos roulette crisps, they literally have a warning on saying something along the lines of 'Warning: Ultra Spicy keep away from young children' and are about as hot as the arctic.

Probably because, as you said, a lot of people don't like spicy food. Their virginal tastebuds are so uncannily sensitive to even the tiniest prick of spice, they'll threaten to sue any food company for selling a pack of chips with any spice at all without having listed it as Ultra Spicy, which also sounds like someone you should keep away from children. It's all relative.
People take pictures of the summer just in case someone thought they had missed it, and to prove that it really existed.

Only took me about 9 months

Congratulations! Is it a boy or girl internet?
K3V0
I'm not going to put a label on it.
When it's old enough it'll tell me whether it feels it's a boy or girl internet.

The killer filmed and uploaded it also.
Reports going about that he's committed suicide and also that he's in hospital in a critical condition after attempting suicide.

The one on the left side of my mouth was growing horizontally into my back tooth and had a fucking hook at the bottom of the root. It was like it had been custom made to cause as much pain as possible on its way out.

Also reports of a shooting in Louisiana where a cop has been hospitalised - this in a state where a cinema shooting took place last month.
I don't get how America can have more guns than people, and more gun deaths per 1,000 than anywhere in the Western world, and still claim to not having a problem. It makes no fucking sense.

In Australia you've got to get a license to be able to apply for a license to sniff a license to get a license to fart to be able to apply for the license for the license of the license you're wanting to apply for and they don't have these random mass murders month after month.

For arguments sake Switzerland has the fourth highest gun ownership rate in the world yet, statistically has one of the lowest gun crime rates too. There's clearly more to it than the availability of guns itself and, besides, at this time I don't really see how a blanket gun ban would change anything. There's simply too many in circulation and you're never going to get them back off everyone.
