Habits are very hard to break. This should be a great place to practice proper writing. We all know that it's easier to type 2 instead of to, two, or too, but after a while the proper word is forgotten.
The time will come when many will have to make an application for a good job, or make an important report. Will they then know how to write properly, or will they appear to be uneducated ?
Let's all get in the habit of proper writing. Good habits last, and bad habits are hard to break.
By the way, how come you didn't us capitals on the words "how and every" ?

Ok, You live in a glass house, yet you throw stones...

1. Why did you not capitalize the word "how" at the beginning of your sentence?

2. It should be, "How come no one can..." instead of "nobody".

3. Again, You failed to capitalize "every". and it should be, "everyone" not "every one".

4. You failed to punctuate the last sentence with either a period or exclamation point.

5. Whoever said English was "universally accepted"? Last I checked Chinese was still spoken by almost three times the people that speak English.

Besides, People from England speak English. Although it is derived from English, I speak American. Which is why I live in America.

Even though people refer to English as a universal language, there's a far cry from claiming the ability to listen to a conversation or watch Seinfeld on TV to being able to write a well-written document or speak an intelligible sentence. Also, because people think that they speak English, they won't ask anyone to proofread their remarks.

Not all people here can 'really' speak (or write for this case) English. Try to understand that people here came from different parts of the world

cuz ain't nobody edumacated no more. Even worser, nobody know how to pronunciate.

In addition, a great deal of what you read here is written in countries where the English they speak is pidgen, at best.

That would be because it is not universally accepted.
