Signs with misspellled words.

My language pet peeve is seeing words misspelled on signs of businesses, churches, SCHOOLS, etc.
I want to go in to the place and politely tell them that they have a word incorrectly spelled on their sign and that this really influences whether I come in to this establishment or not. Also words that are misspelled in programs, bulletins, or printed material that is to educate or inform people of anything, really disturbs me. Especially in this day of spell check, etc.

  1. Too funny! Incorrect usage of an apostrophe drives me nuts. One day I drove through Wendy's drive-thru, asked for the manager and told him the sign needed to be corrected. I also told him why. He didn't correct it but changed to whole sign!!
