If there's such a thing as a color troll, that would probably be me
I only add color to words I want to emphasize because italics just won't dooooo
I'm trying to do better

I'm on step one of the 12 step program, Coloring Anonymouse.

Don't feed the trolls people.
Just like the neighbors cat, they just keep coming back.
OK, bad example, I just shoot the cats...

Most of the spelling errors don't bother me at all because stuff like that is going to happen sometimes, but the improper use of there, their, and they're throw the whole rhythm off. When it should be "there" and someone goes out of their way to type "they're" still baffles me.

My auto web browser spell checker irritates me sometimes.
Speaking of contractions, I like "it'd"
It'd be great if ... my spell checker was slang friendly.

{Comforting C-dub} There, their, they're. Everything will be alright.

And then there are some obscure trolls that are rarely seen around these parts.
One of them is the '
British English Troll'. (Just thought I'd keep the theme going!

)
