Pet Peeves in Elements of Style

I really hate it when people do not use proper English when they are talking or writing. I especially hate the word ain't. I think it makes people sound less intelligent because they are not using the proper words. I also do not like it when people don't know how to spell or correctly use the words to, too, and two. I know that we use spellcheck for almost everything these days but it should not give us an excuse to not learn the proper way to speak and write. Spellcheck does not catch everything which is why we need to learn the correct way to speak and write so that we can catch our mistakes when we do make them.
