Just a little peeve to start the weekend:
It drives me absolutely insane when people cannot spell the word "dilemma". It seems like five out of six people I see using the word online spell it incorrectly.
The most common misspelling I see is "delima". Okay, fine, you don't know how to spell it, but THAT spelling? Is not even how it's pronounced!!! The word is pronounced dill-lem-ma. Not dee-lime-ah. And "delima" spells dee-lime-ah. It sounds like a guy from Jamaica talking about beans.
And don't even get me started on "could of" and "should of" instead of could've and should've. *Falls on the floor, gnashing teeth and foaming at the mouth*
Best wishes for the weekend, everyone!
