People who want code support yet ignore their own spelling, grammar and punctuation on the thread they create.
You want code? Start by cleaning up your own syntax.

LAZY.

Pet Peeve: When I see 'then' but the location really requires 'than'. I try to ignore it, but I always notice it.

I think its because accents in some parts of the world make those two words sound the same, so it doesn't matter. In New Zealand 'then' and 'than' sound completely different so its hard to understand how anyone could make that mistake.

On a side note: 'beer', 'bear', 'bare' all sound exactly the same in spoken NZ English.

'Seam' and 'Seem'
I know that we're all "separated by a common language" but that difference really gets to me for some reason ;-)

There's only one small typo difference between coding like a champ and coding like a chump.

I am that chimp.

"It seems that this process is seamless"
Two different words and meanings :-)
