Hey there. Ask away whatever you want answered and I'll do my best. Please avoid unconventional capitalization and spelling - it makes the questions harder to read and so I'm less likely to answer.

Omg..I cannot stand it when people use your instead or you're or their instead of there or they're.
OH MY GOSH. Example : Your so stupid. & Their retartarded. & Their you are! & You're shirt. And...would you look at that...another error! : Are princess. -_- (meant to be "OUR princess")
GRR. This happens a lot to me. Like I see people doing it over and over and over again. It annoys the hell out of me! Would it be too rude to correct them? They should know by now, right!?
Ugh.

It's probably not the nicest thing to do...but someone's got to correct them before they try to turn in academic papers with basic verb tense errors all over!
It drives me nuts too and I correct people - writing, speaking, doesn't matter, I'll correct them.
If they get mad at you, tell them, "sorry, but if you don't use the right tense in your writing, you'll look like an idiot who never learned basic grammar." Or something like that.
As long as you're fairly polite about your corrections, DO IT!
^.^
