Lurker111, be proud of your grammar Nazi-ism! Language changes and evolves but if we allow it to degrade to the point where communication is reduced to grunting or lolz or internet memes or text-speak we all lose.
One of my biggest current piques is the misuse of "onto" for "on to." (And I'm now seeing instances of where "on to" is being used where "onto" should be! Gahh!)
