The only way to outsmart AI is to use idioms incorrectly. Until the AI figures out this little trick. Then we all just talk like we’re stupid. |

With how many native speakers still mess up your and you're, and especially "should of" instead of should've, I would actually wager theyre a native speaker |

"Moo point" might be an intentional eggcorn meant to reference to Friends. Joey famously calls it a "moo point" and justifies is by saying that it is "Like a cow's opinion. It doesn't matter. It's moo." And, "hull in a blue" isn't a true eggcorn because it doesn't technically make logical sense in context... but, to be fair, it makes exactly as much sense as "hullabaloo" does, so... |

Also, plurals being possesified. For example, ACHs v. ACH’s. Drives me fucking insane. |

Or they use STT instead of typing and don't proofread their emails. |

I often see 'mute point' for 'moot point' |

Just forget the contraction and right "should have". When pronounced correctly it sounds nothing like 'of'. |

No, like the wales in corduroy pants! When they make that whiffing noise, that's your legs telling you that you're getting exercise, and exercise is good for you, so you're hearing agreement. |

Dates are a conundrum. Is it "the 1980s" or "the 1980's ?" |
