My own pet peeve is abuse of the language, not spelling. A so-called native English-speaker who doesn't know the difference between "your" and "you're", between "where", "wear" and "ware", between "there", "their" and "they're" is what annoys me. People who are too lazy to learn their own language. When I've been called on those myself I've been appropriately contrite. But spelling? It happens.

As I said, it looks like neither of you has ever actually read what I've written on the subject, and neither of you has a clue as to my "peeves", pet or otherwise.
