At first I thought it had to do with cash registers. People using “till” in place of “‘til” or “until” drives me crazy.

(Also, using “a” like in “two times a year” creeps me out too. Sure, I say “a year” but in writing it looks sloppy.)

huh? so you say "two times year"? that's crazier.

Why would you assume they say nothing instead of the correct word, per?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 4 months ago

Because they only mentioned what creeps them out, offering no option (hence my comment) instead of the «correct» one.

plus my mind blanked, heh
