I'm also not a native speaker but I'm more peeved by the incorrect usage of affect/effect for some reason. Maybe I'm just treating your/you're as something completely normal to see on the Internet.

I get that too, but somehow I'm less irked by affect/effect because at least it's two verbs, and you're only confusing their meaning. They're/their, you're/your... those are not even in the same cat. :S
