Sad but true. Ask any teenager how to spell a certain word. They will tell you that they may not be exactly sure how to spell it, but they can get it close enough and my auto-correct will get it right.
Or I hear this alot....sometimes when I gets mixed up between texting and writing for my school class. I have to be careful not to get my text language confused with my class language.
Bottom line...who needs proper english anymore when texting, tweets, and emails all use improper english anyways.
