      Attention!

      "A lot" is two words, not one. This has gone on long enough.

      This should be stickied.

      Idiots... the lot of you. Surely you'd all know about the usage of such words and their spellings?

      I think there should be a new staff team on this forum. They shall be called the "Grammar Natzees." I shall be their leader.

      Other non-words:

      Irregardless - Not a word. Please choose either "irrespective" or "regardless." Making the switch will gain you 12 popularity points.

      Normalcy - Yes, it has started to appear in some dictionaries by now, but you language-rapists will not win!!! The word you want here is "Normality." Making this switch will earn you 2 friends over the next 6 months. If you are a politician, the switch will be especially difficult, but you probably need the friends more than most.

      Nother - Another one that's creeped into dictionaries against the shaking of my tiny fist! This word usually is usually used in the phrase "A whole nother," but making the switch to "A whole new," or "A whole different" will help you lose as much as a pound per week in unwanted ugly fat.
