More egregious writing mistakes
More mistakes found in shitty writing. This one makes me fecking livid.
Every day. Two words. Adjective, noun. A daily occurrence. "I wish I could get shitfaced every day and never get hangovers."
Everyday. One word. Adjective. Commonplace, conventional, customary. "I'm not your average, everyday drunk."

You are correct, but on the otherhand, I kind of like it, anyhow. (Re: The Sexiest Conversation You Can Have, Mortimer Shy)
there are two main things that piss me off with language... the -t in often is SILENT... and for the one that gets me the most is the mist use of the word myriad. Myriad is just another word for many, it only sounds prettier. You cannot have a myriad "of" something, you have myriad somethings.

"The politician used a myriad of stupid examples to make his point"
CORRECT
"the politician used myriad stupid examples to make his point"
