#3 Illiteracy & Stupidity


I am ashamed to even have to go into this topic and how much it bothers me. Our society is chalk full of idiots. Unfortunately, I didn't even have to look up misspellings on google because this came from a friend that I follow on Twitter. I showed this to some of my other high school friends and immediately got depressed because they didn't understand what the problem was. Take a minute to look at the photo and find what's wrong with it. To those who didn't find the mistake, (educate yourself) she said 'their' instead of 'they're.' Our generation needs to understand this. Posting things like this anywhere just screams  'I'M STUPID, MAKE FUN OF ME.' They're - they are There - a location Their - shows possession. Education. Get it right. The person who posted this just graduated high school and my friends that didn't get it when I showed it to them were seniors. I'm not telling you to become a Grammar Nazi and correct people left and right, just don't make the same mistakes that they do. You annoy me. Stop.
