Don’t that just burn ya up!

Who knew that aliens text?

Your not the only ones.

(*intentional)

Hopefully everyone learned their lesson…

I’ve been called a Grammar N___ a few times, but this is on a different level.

Ha. Take that Grammar Police.

Back in days of yore…

Pop up are killing the fun. I may boycot.

Are they (now) able to see what each other are saying?

“Your” and “You’re” sound the same.

He did not see that coming.

Clumsy Carbon?

As long as yore sure about it.

The Count wonder if he wants to use the bathroom, too, like the one in Garfield

I’m with the space dude on that one

They’re, their, there. no need to get nasty

A lot of commentors on GoGomics should heed this strip since there are quite a few who love to play grammar police.

There, they’re, their.

There is no brawl so violent as a bunch of editors arguing over a comma.

As in "Where’s your head?’

It was me. Now I am it.

It’s not about comprehension, or what is heard. It’s about spelling.

Spoke way too soon!!!!

That’s American English for you…

Beats getting an anal probe

there are three ways to wright their/they’re/there but if you were writing out the sentence which would you choose?

The Men in Black zapper came in my mind… :/

Yes, incomprehensible, One hears words, not see them.

We should do away with contractions. Their shouldn’t be words like, shouldn’t, wouldn’t, you’re, they’re, aren’t and so on. We should instead use, you are, they are, are not, should not and would not, and so forth. We should also limit new words that make no sense, or destroy the definition of a word. One that comes to mind, in the last 50 years, is the word gay. When my father was a boy, gay meant happy, care free. Now, you know what they want it to mean. We also should try to vilify words, like master bedroom, mother, woman, and more.

‘Mother English’ by Bill Bryson.

so… you were saying??

Given how frequently this occurs in the comics, one might conclude that comic strip characters, rather than “hearing” the dialogue, are actually just reading each other’s speech balloons, and therefore see the misspellings.

’Still confused how to add that apostrophe in my spoken speech.

In speech, you can’t tell the difference between “your” and “you’re”.

then don’t even get started on our politics

An act of war!

Are they trying to say the English language is alien to them?

Wait until they know of the silent letters in English… The word “Queue” is just letter Q with a bunch of silent letters waiting in line ;) or Debt – what’s that ‘B’ doing there?
