Aisle: passageway between seating areas
Isle: a small island
Ok that is my snotty post for today, sorry bee. also I will note its hypocritical because I'm the worst speller ever and have tons of mistakes in my post but for whatever reason every time I see this one and its a lot, I cringe. all I read is when is "When I walk down the small island"
I do the same thing! Not that I'm one to judge, but this one always irked me as well.
@Snowy414: How do you know they aren't having the ceremony on their own private isle? ;-)
haha, I'm glad I'm not the only one annoyed by small things like that! I'm a bit of a grammar and spelling freak though. 
Ha! Good one! I know that I post and my brain can't keep up with my fingers as I type, but they are clear case of tying too quickly, not incorrect words! LOL! Hopefully they won't get offended, just a little embarassed and learn a lesson for the day.
@McVerde: MINE too!! If I catch one in a post I added I must immediately go back and "edit".
Advise vs advice makes me nuts. I'll totally admit it. I know I make mistakes a lot too though, so I try to keep myself in check ;)
@KatNYC2011: Hahaha...awesome.
I'm totally guilty of this when my fingers type faster than my brain works...
I'm an annoyed there, their, they're person. As well as your and you're.
Also when people are talking I have a hard time not correcting someone when they say li-BARE-ee. Ugghhhh... there's another R in there!
THANK YOU. I've been wanting to say that for a while. ALSO:
alter: to change something
altar: a table or other raised object used in worship in a religious building
its: belonging to a non-gendered object or creature
it's: a contraction that replaces "it is"
their: belonging to a group of people or things
there: a place
they're: a contraction of "they are"
@Snowy414: Thank you!!! This one makes me cringe too, but I didn't want to say anything since I'm not one to preach being an ESL speaker and saying stupid stuff all the time myself.
Once I was trying to prove to my husband I do not find James McAvoy all that attractive and there's no reason to be jealous. I wanted to point out something imperfect like his nose. Except instead of "well, he does have a huge schnoz", what I said was "well he does have a huge schlong!". You can imagine that one didn't go over very well, LOL.
I always correct people on FB. I probably piss them off, but at least they will learn something in the process.
@GreenEyedMoon: The one that gets me is loose vs. lose.
When you lose weight your pants get loose.
@tinarenee77: Oh how could I forget!! And what's up with the "tween" talk saying "tew"??? Like 'that is "tew" cute'. Terrible.
THANK YOU! I was writing a paper the other day and could not remember for the life of me the difference between
AFFECT
and
EFFECT.
Thank goodness that got all straightened out. Things like that make my head hurt too.
I hate:
Affect: to produce a change, act on
Effect: the result
Except: to omit, not in a category
Accept: to take or receive (with approval)
But I also mistype a LOT so maybe I'm not one to judge either....
@KatNYC2011: That one kills me, too.
You know what irks me? No one can spell "definitely." There are no A's in the word. None. Just two I's. It has the same root as "definition."
@SweetRose2011: I always just have to remember that affect is a verb and effect is a noun.
@zippylef: The easy way to remember that is that the "e's" in thE Effect line up. Match the E's you have the noun.
@meliss: ROFL!!!! That's hilarious!!! And maybe a Freudian slip?! ;)
@KatNYC2011: Ditto.
@Mrs.tobe: One of my new pet peeves is people who use text short forms in emails, etc. It makes me insane. Have you seen the movie Idiocracy?
@farmgirl2106: for some reason I was struggling with these the other day so I'm glad I'm not the only one. And I'm also glad that now I get that one is a noun and the other is a verb. Whew.
@GreenEyedMoon: I CANNOT spell it either, but I always spell check it because I know it is wrong.
I insured my house for $300,000.00 so that I could ensure that I would be okay if it burned down.
insure: involves money
ensure: does not involve money
Solder = to join or fuse
sodder, salder, sawder = nothing.
That's the one that gets me! :)
@GreenEyedMoon: Ensure - a chocolate-y drink with mega vitamins.
@bakerella: One of my favorite movies EVER. Sadly, thats totally the future of the US... except people will be fatter.
@JeniRae: Hey... isn't a sodder someone who lays sod 
Ok I'm glad to know I'm not the only one who noticed these thngs. Veil vs Vail an alter vs altar are good wedding ones too. @meliss hilarious!
@KatNYC2011 I hope you are right and that someone on the bee does really have their own isle
@bakerella I have seen Idiocracy and while it may not be the world's greatest movie, i talk about it all the time because I think the idea may be true
@zippylef: YES!!! Someone else who's seen it!!! Whenever I see people writing "u r kewl" or something I think of that movie and sigh.....
One that gets me everytime...when someone says they are passionate about grammer. It's grammar. You should know that if the previous statement is true. Unless you have a hankering for Kelsey and Camille, it's spelled with an 'a.' I'm not perfect by any means, but my god this one drive me nuts.
@Snowy414: I had an isle and and aisle. Although not at the same time sadly. We had an aisle for our wedding, and a private isle for our honeymoon ;) And I totally agree about Idiocracy. It's eerily/scarily/potentially true!!!
Here's another one that makes me get all homicidal: "I should/could of walked a mile."
GET RID OF THE "OF." IT'S SUPPOSED TO BE "HAVE." DON'T MAKE ME BEAT IT INTO YOUR HEAD. I WILL DO SO IN A VERY LITERAL SENSE IF I HAVE TO. ARGH.
@bakerella: Did you know that the band DEVO actually pioneered the theory of de-evolution? They thought it up as a joke in college in the 60s, but it caught on after the Kent State shootings. Im a believer.
