    Now I'm not the most literate guy out there, but I feel like while browsing around this week I have found a ton of wrong uses for "sale" versus "sell". So..... being the sarcastic guy that I am.... I thought I'd open a thread to keep count every time I see one. :D

    So to start off, some that I've saved:

    It really just comes down to me being piss bored at work today. I'm gone tomorrow and Friday, so the motivation is nil.

    Just a bunch of old crap
    I got your back, @frizbal

    I can't stand the misuse of our own language. The sale/sell mix-up is the abused stepchild of the their/there/they're and the your/you're errors that usually get all of the attention.

    Rant on, good sir.

    What if I want to sell a sail that's on sale? Should I post my cell?


    My wife just taught her kids this yesterday.
