I would agree with you. I don't capitalize all the time, nor use correct punctuation, but simple grammar and spelling isn't that hard.
i believe most people who mess up things like "your you're" incorrect actually know the difference.[/quote]
If they knew the difference, then why would they willingly misspell a word? Wouldn't it be just as easy to spell it correctly?[/quote]
i don't know. but sometimes i use "your" in place of "you're" for comical effects or to fit in.
