Homonyms aggravate the crap out of me. I'm always using the wrong one in the wrong place. One particularly troublesome set is (their, there, they're). I find that when I am proof reading anything I've written (yes, I do actually proof read, bet you never guessed it) that over half of the "theirs" should be "theres" and vis versa.
Well I've come up with a solution. From now on, I think I will use "thr" in place of (their, there, they're). Mostly in place of the first two; I really don't use the contraction "they're" that much in writing.
So from now on, thr are gonna be a lot of people reading thr emails from me and wondering if thr actually seeing what they think thr seeing.
