"PT" means Physical Therapist. If you cannot bring yourself to type out "patient", the correct abbreviation is "pt".
It's LOSE your license, not "loose" your license. I've seen this one so often I'm starting to type "loose" myself.
"Needless to say" means it is so obvious that you don't even need to point it out. Why do people persist on using this when it is neither obvious or even remotely likely?
Pet peeve- poor grammar or spelling in a fax to a physician. I've seen them so bad, doc circled the phrase and wrote "what?" Sometimes I feel like people try to over "professionalize" their communications, and it ends up sounding like a medical soap opera script.
I hate people using passed instead of past. "He past by the house" vs "He passed by the house". There is no way anyone can "past by" anything.
I just had to comment on this one, because I hadn't even noticed until tonight that a sign at work notes that only kitchen personnel can go 'PASSED' a yellow line. Uh-huh...
"6 AM in the morning". Really?!! Is that to avoid confusion with 6 AM in the evening?!
Ha ha! That is hilarious.
Here's another one I've seen often on here: someone asking for 'advise'. I have to say the same thing I said about 'then' vs. 'than' - listen to how you say it out loud! Think ICE, ice-ice-baby. You're asking for advICE - a thing. If someone gives you advICE, they're adVISing you.
These kind's of grammar mistake's literally make me want too loose my mind. Irregardless, I could care less about silly excuse's like autocorrect, much less bad education. These to thing's just ain't my problem. I am a professional women and as such I should of been properly orientated on Englandish language and grammar y'all *mumble* *grunt* LOL ROFL #noexcuse's

This one made me laugh. I had the image of a Matt on the floor waiting for someone to fall on him. Will he catch them or be squished?
