For the love of Mike, please stop writing Iv

[MinaHarker1897]

So fed up of seeing this.

BTW I don't know who Mike is. I hear this a lot too and it makes no sense.

Iv

I haven't seen that. What is it supposed to be? I've?

Can we add “his” for he’s to the list too?

'Mike' is St Michael.

I don’t think I’ve ever seen Iv.

Literally never seen this. In fact my phone wouldn't let me type it. I'd have to go back umpteen times to correct it.

Maybe it's someone who normally posts on their phone so lets it do the proof reading for her randomly posting on a laptop which doesn't.

It's everywhere on social media and on Mumsnet.

I’ll get back to everyone with times etc this morning once Iv got the kids to school. Thankyou

Maybe I just haven’t noticed it, possibly the same posters write “could of” earlier in the post so I stop reading 🙂. (My phone autocorrected “of” to “have” there, I had to change it back. I do wonder how people manage to post these horrors; my phone would not let me).

I can only guess they have overruled their phone so many times thinking it was wrong that it now doesn't show that correction?

LV keep writing to me. Junk mail.

Shouldn't you be fed up with rather than fed up of?

For me, it's where people write women when then mean woman. I see it everywhere online!

Huh? Is this the classic pendant corner revenge coming into play? 😂

My phone likes taking out apostrophes and it annoys the hell out of me, and lately it's decided not to always capitalise I mid sentence as well. No idea why.

Not to mention some bloke called Noone. He turns up everywhere.

Current peeves:

Suppose to.
Use to.

So the text will say "saw a women today" " there was a women on my bus"

How am I being pedantic that it grates! It's no typo. The lettered are not together. The phone doesn't autocorrect it. It's just wrong and reads wrong.

Iv not seen this

Me neither.

Not seen it either. Mykids text KK for ok that pisses me off.

Pendant? Typo? Auto correct?

Your not wrong.

Muphry's Law squared 🤣

Why is there so much confusion over none and non too? I keep seeing examples such as 'none-stick'. I can hardly bear (NOT bare) to read posts on social media any more.

Don't!
