Get it Right!!!

"Alright" seems to have become acceptable through use, especially in British works, but it was drummed into our little heads in elementary school that it was definitely not all right. The number of editors who overlook this one disturbs me.

I really couldn't of cared less about these grammar fopaws.
And now I wait with baited breath to read your despatches on this comment.
It's alright though, I'm pretty sure you'll figure out I'm just pulling chains.
I hope it doesn't reign anymore today, though. I'm sick and tired of it.

For all intensive purposes, that post was just a troll.

I am so glad I am not alone in this complaint...I have a T-shirt that reads; "English doesn't so much borrow from languages as it follows them down an alley, knocks them down and goes through their pockets for loose grammar"
