CHESTER DRAWERS in the wild!

From a person I did not expect to hear it from...

WIBU to have thought that it was a myth?!

My mother had a real thing about spelling. She passed this onto my siblings and me (we're all also avid readers which has probably helped/exacerbated it!). I have seen some howlers and I have to try not to point them out but it drives me bandy. If you know you're shit at spelling, use Google/spell check before posting! One that really goads me is 'ect'. It's etc - an abbreviation of et cetera. Oh and would/should/could/must of! How can you 'of'? It's 'have' FFS! Why would you abbreviate of to 've? It really grinds my gears 🙈😂

To add. Keep the memento (momentum) going !!
Not misheard they have used it several times now.
You’s is used a lot round this way. I would only ever say it, it’s regional and I couldn’t write it, it would look wrong to me.

People who write women and there referring to the singular, also I had a friend who's mother was passionately sighted

It's 'have' FFS! Why would you abbreviate of to 've?
Harls for the same reason you abbreviate cannot to can’t? It’s how we speak in real life. Should’ve (for example) is completely accurate. It’s not at all responsible for anyone writing or saying should of.

what the heck is skellington? I'd make a wild guess at Skeleton.

Sorry to bring up this word but I hate it when people pronounce Brexit as
Breggzit most of the news readers do it. It's supposed to rhyme with Exit isn't it?

Seen on FB today.Anyone know someone who can repair a Citron cheep?

Folk who mix up their and there,it actually makes me shudder when I see that mistake 😫

You’re aware that lots of our current words/place names were formed in exactly this way right!?

Bloody hilarious

When I was a little girl I thought there was a football team called Hulkingston Rovers.

Rort iron gate
Prolly instead of probably
Can't be asked (I always thought it was arsed but I'm probably wrong!?)

All time favourite

E-jog

For hedgehog. Written in professional statement.

Side boreds

In all honesty the speed a speak chest of drawers sounds like Chester draws. Someone called me out on it once, to which I slowed it down and proved their hearing was equally at fault to my speech.

Equally, let’s not forget that language is an ever evolving

Other words/phrases which irritate me senseless:

Ikkle / lil = little
Girlie
Making memories
This one
Chippy tea
Picky tea
Cutie /cutie pie
Holibobs
Nuptials

Gorilla warfare. 🤔

When people use the word 'cheeky' as in 'cheeky drink' grrr.
Sorry I'm digressing now

“loose” when lose is meant is rampant.
Levridge.... I think she meant leverage, crushed Asians (Crustaceans?)
It’s a daily source of amusement

It’s “there” and “their” that winds me up. A member of my family is in the senior leadership team of a secondary school but he can’t use “there” and “there” properly. There’s no hope for his students!

I was always taught to pronounce H as aitch ......I'm not sure if this is the right way , but my mum had a real thing about it & so now when i hear people saying Haitch with definition on the huh it really grates and seems to be happenong more & more
Anyone know how it should be pronounced?

Aitch is correct but there are occasional regional variations.

Did a very quick search on Facebook and found these amongst many others!! I am genuinely

The ‘need Chester draws no silly prices and must deliver’ is a classic

Slight paraphrase above sorry!

People who write on route instead of en route
