When I first learned how to spell the word “lose”, I’m certain it only had one “o” in it. I don’t know what grade it was, but I’m sure it was easy.

Throughout my school years, “lose” continued to only have one “o” in it. It’s a very common word, I probably saw it at least once a day. Then, somewhere in the 21st century, I started noticing a strange trend. Two o’s!

Wha-wha-whaaaat? Did I miss something? Did Webster change their dictionary? When did the the word “lose” become “loose”?

I see it almost daily, on blogs written by grown adults. I know that it’s wrong, and my mind goes off track when I see it. Think of a needle being knocked off a record. You know that scratching sound? Yep, that’s what I hear in my head.

The worst example is when someone is called a “looser”. Don’t even get my started with that one.

So remember, dear bloggers, whenever you are in doubt, just remember this easy phrase:

A loose butthole will make guys “lose” interest in you.

You’ll lose your pants if they’re too loose!

That’s easier to remember!

LOL, I pray I wasn’t the person who made the grammatical error!!!

Tom - Yeah that is a good one Tom. Why must everything be about sex? hehe

Ynager - If it was you, then I don’t remember. These posts are never aimed at anyone, and I’m certainly not bashing people on my blog. Take it as a general statement, because there are no hidden motives

Agreed.

But trying to correct everyone’s spelling is definately a loosing proposition!

(And I think your original sentence is certainly very memorable!)

English would’ve been so much more fun if I had you as my teacher.
