    It’s OK for people to be offended by lazy editing. This isn’t a language barrier problem, which would be an acceptable excuse. This is lack of attention.

      Not really, it is sad to expect perfect grammar on a casual forum. People are usually posting/commenting here inbetween other stuff.

      Real life > social media.

        Someone who’s too lazy to perform basic grammar checking before posting a meme is a lazy person, period. That lack of concern about the quality of your work is never isolated to just “a casual forum”. But thanks for your reply. Have a day.

          Different languages have different rules for making words plural. Dutch, for instance, requires an apostrophe for a lot of them. (een komma, twee komma’s), so a mistake is quickly made.

          To err is human, still… Are you able to type 100% faultlessly in your second or third language?
