I admit that I cannot spell. I have always been missing that gene so I apologize ahead of time for my mistakes as they are bound to happen (spell check or not). That said, I do my best.
I will say that I find things like road/rode and peddle/pedal actually highly distracting when I'm reading a post. I also bristle at the use of 'alot'. Of course, neither of these things really compare to my utter hatred for the non-word 'prolly'. I actually used to work with people who honestly thought that prolly was a word. These were people with advanced degrees in engineering, no less. Ugh.
