Love you, but really “two?” Refresher course for you:

I am going TO go mad if people keep screwing up to/too/two.

TOO many people like Cuomo . [Hint if something is too much or too many there are too many “o” letters. [Got it?]

Those TWO, Cuomo and Reno, should be locked up. [Two — like “twin” — TWO of them.]

Please don’t give our liberal enemies ammo to say we are illiterate. I have seen many a fine argument ruined because the author made silly spelling mistakes which cuts down on how effect it is. Sorry if you missed this in the first grade, but maybe you were out sick or something.

Well for my part, I hate homophones. I look at other languages, especially Asian ones of the far east, and I wonder how English got away with the few homophones it has. Sad thing is, in older versions of English, the words today that are homophonic were most likely not so in the past . . .

Oh no!, I thought I had that proofread until I saw the two instead of too after I had it posted. I let it go, and now see what happens. Anal retentive people like yourself picked up on it. My life is completely ruined (sob, sniff).
