I've seen it often enough that instead of reading it as written my mind has been correcting the grammar as I read it.
Similar to when a word in a sentence is repeated and people only read one of it.
It feels like it's been taking less effort to comprehend their meaning than it was to point out the error.

Not really. My spelling sucks anyway so I'm not one to judge.

Grammar teacher -- I do. Foreigners air out their complaints that they misunderstand the plain English when the Native English speakers writes the erroneous spelling. Some are capable of figuring it out, but because it's a setback for communication, I do feel sorry for my students trying to adapt.

I care, particularly since I put an unvoiced distinguisher in so it reads differently to me. As far as I'm concerned, they are all different words, different concepts and so aren't similar enough to confuse with eachother. It looks like they don't know what they meant and that's frustrating beyond belief.

If it is just someone typing quickly and messing it up, no.

If it is someone acting "holier then thou" and trying to sound smart, you can bet I am going to be a smart ass and correct them.

Yes. No other problems will be solved until these are used correctly without fail.

They're isn't really a problem if I read across it. It takes a second to fix their mistake in my head.

I care because if there are spelling and grammar errors, I usually don't understand what people are saying.

Do I "care"? No. Do I think somewhat less of people who can't seem to learn the rules? ...yes.

But I'm a contract editor, so maybe that goes with the territory.

Yes, we should care about mistakes. Maybe someday our AI overlords will correct them all.

side note: I have a coworker that signs their emails with a period after their name.
