Place for your language rants.

Okay, I'll start with this one.

One thing that drives Me crazy is people who confuse lose and loose. Hell, I've even seen this mistake in professional print!

They are both words in the English language with completely different meaning.

LOOSE is indicative of something not being tight or tightened as in , "The binding on her wrist was loose."

LOSE is when something gets lost. i.e. "She was about to lose control as she lost the last remnants of her clothing, and dignity."

So, what's a pet peeve for you about language?
