    And another of my favorites is when people misuse the internet shorthand, ie: plz PST me. PST = "PLEASE" send tell... sounds like someone is begging "please please send me a tell."

    Makes me laugh every time I see that.
    RIP in peace. Doin it right.

    I know the correct spelling is Tomestone but I keep thinking Tombstone anyway.

    What the hell is a tomestone anyway?

    I never got why they called them tomestones. Are we seriously carrying around large books made out of stones? At least a tombstone can be small.



    Anyway, I never knew why certain silly things irritate people. Why is this a problem? Will it just completely ruin your day if you see someone shouting for tombstones?

    Do you think you are doing a good deed in explaining to everyone they are wrong? Some already know how it's spelled but don't really give a flying finger. And did you know must people are really evil? If they are on the same server as you and know this irritates you, they will screw around with you. Some might even create a new character on your server just for the lulz... I mean laughs. Sorry.

    You misspelled ''grammar'' and ''Nazis'' should not have been used possessively.

    Not sure I agree calling tomestones tomes for short. Hockey players aren't hockeys, paper clips aren't papers. They're players and clips, tomestones should be stones.
