Ill start it of with a few,

"Timewaster" often used to describe anyone that wont meet said person.

"Judgemental" very commonly used against anyone that speaks out against someone doing something like "cheating".

"Fake" see timewaster.

Arrogant - someone finding you not attractive is not arrogant.

Time waster - someone not interested in you is not a time waster.

Athletic - well your not fat so that means you must be athletic.

"Of when meaning have"

That's just the tip of the iceberg...

Hes instead of his

Are instead of our

There instead of their (and vice versa)

...and many more.

This is not complicated stuff. Most of this we're taught in primary school.

My 8 year old can do better!

Somewhere in North Norfolk

Dominate instead of dominant.

It seems increasing common to see people write that they are, or are looking for, a dominate woman/man.

Took the word right out if my mouth. Although I am guilty of using it even when I know it's in the wrong context.

Hello all,

the one word that I find strange is the use of 'draw' meaning drawer?

Apart from all the horrible American phrases and syntax that is becoming too much a part of current spoken English.

'Literally' when they don't actually mean 'Literally'

e.g. "I literally pissed myself laughing"

When their bladder control has been perfectly fine, they just laughed a lot.
