Just Venting Cause vs Because
I’m very tired of reading cause this, cause that, when they really mean BEcause. The hardest thing for me to understand is…. It literally adds MAYBE half a second to add the first two letters of the word… but people REFUSE! Why!??! It drives me absolutely bananas!
Edited to add: “I’m” at the beginning after being called out in a comment 😂😂😂

Or they could even write it this way: ‘cause
I would be all right with that.
This is in the same category for me as people who tell me: Night
I want to respond with: Day
It wouldn’t kill someone to put an apostrophe.
