Grammar/usage (whateva!) pet peeve o' the day 'Anymore'
Anymore v. any more.

e.g., "I don't love you anymore."

"I couldn't love you any more."

One has to do with time, one with quantity.


Thank you very much.

That 'whateva' even bugged me.

I feel so old. :(

2. Don't get me started, either.
I could post a huge list of grammar pet peeves.
