Seems that any and every word can be misspelled, especially when people don't pay attention to how they are typing.
Would it be inappropriate to suggest that people use the spell check feature before posting replies? :)

Reading the questions in here should provide you with a myriad of examples. My little brain is brimming with examples, but they are too great to list. Good luck and God bless.

The one I see the most is "supposed" as in "supposed to"
I always see people write like this:
She was suppose to meet me at the mall....
When it should be:
She was supposed to meet me at the mall....
Also, 'a lot' is two words. Not one. :)
