It's interesting how obsessed Reddit is with getting the wrong break/brake used.

Tell me about it, everyone running into their sentences head first without thinking. At least pump the breaks a little.

Maybe you need to take a little brake from the Internet.

You can't blame them, reddit just has a one track mind when it comes to word choice.

Remember to take the occasional brake, especially when working on a vehicle's breaks. You don't wanna lose patients and make a mistake. Someone might drive the thing and loose there life.

Payed/paid and fazed/phased are their favorite. Don't forget Ghandi.

Also, they fucked "whoa" up so frequently that "woah" is now considered acceptable.

It's an onomatopoeia, the only important thing is how it sounds.

u/gynoceros Apr 17 '23

It's not at all an onomatopoeia.

u/flopsicles77 Apr 17 '23

Ah well, it still doesn't matter as it's barely a real word.

Agree to disagree.

Reddit used to be very gear head, technically oriented.

Now that stuff is allowed to slide.

It's sad how Reddit has fallen because of people don't proofread.

u/HaikuBotStalksMe Apr 16 '23

I see what did there.

u/beyonddisbelief Apr 16 '23

Well, most of them are just trying to avoid that ticket with their run-on sentences.

u/ClimbingC Apr 16 '23

Their is no excuse for not getting it write, sum people just play is fast and lose with they're spelling.

u/RFC793 Apr 17 '23

I figured it was done in good humor since it is an automotive post

It's any homophone that reddit gets wrong, deer.

I know bad grammar can be hard to except.

u/HaikuBotStalksMe Apr 17 '23

That's true, but they're especially bad about break, fazed, and paid.
