I have one problem with the one coin thing. I make a typo every post on average. I just type to fast. I can assure you that one typo was made in the typing of this. if you can tell the difference between terrible spelling and tpos, I think you can take the job. I also think you should be able to tell if the horrible spelling is on purpose and leave it.

The Spelling Pirates had UFO's back then! By now, they own their own planet, you know. At least the Spelling Pirates don't all have blue eyes and blonde hair!

This is something that really bugs me. Unless you're indicating a contraction (like you're) or ownership, keep your fingers off the apostrophe key. Just because something is plural, does not mean it needs an apostrophe.

Remember it!

Yes it is spelled like that and I fixed it for you. If you look back at the original post you wrote "grammer".

If it's plural AND shows possession... it deserves and apostrophe at the END of the word!

The Grammar Nazis' had AIRPLANES and SHIPS!

Some people like me make typos and are just too lazy to fix them. Forums aren't meant to have picture perfect grammar, just grammar that still makes sense.

Right about the first part...second part...still wrong!

If you were saying "The Grammar Nazis' airplanes had bombs." then you would use the apostrophe. But that sentence should just be "The Grammar Nazis had AIRPLANES and SHIPS!"
