"Might of"?

It is MIGHT HAVE. Not everything that is said is written the same way.
MIGHT HAVE
MIGHT HAVE
MIGHT HAVE
MIGHT HAVE
MIGHT HAVE
It is not "might OF", it is "might HAVE". It is not "could OF", it is "could HAVE". Go spread the word.

This might of been more effective if I made the topic clearer...but I wanted people to really think about it.
It is not "might OF", it is "might HAVE". It is not "could OF", it is "could HAVE". Go spread the word.

I'm really here to share the love of self preservation and not really worry about people's grammar. I have bigger fish to fry.
If we corrected every their, they're and there used incorrectly on the sites we would not enjoy them for what they are. YMMV

Next you'll want everyone to run their posts through spellcheck before posting. Personally, I like the gramatical and spelling errors. They make me feel superior, and with my low self esteem, that's a good thing.
