PSA: The word is FAZE, not PHASE

You’re not “swapping out” or “swapping in” — you’re substituting or replacing

Animals may like to be petted, but they never like "being pet." They probably like being a pet, though.

And then effect/affect


I’ll always guess on that one. Can’t get it through my head.

Affect is usually a verb. Like to affect change. However, it can also be a noun (for example: the man was so depressed, he had a flat affect. Here affect means his emotional state).

Effect is usually a noun. For example, the effect of poverty is high crime. Or the effect of too much sun is sunburn.

I found this online: A is for action (affect); E is for end result (effect).

For crying out loud, it’s IceD tea not Ice Tea.

It’s “effect change.” That’s the exception to the usually-a-noun rule.

Thank you from saving me from being a pedant, but yes, it’s constant and it’s like nails on a chalkboard.

It’s “you’re” not “your”—if you mean “you are.”

Never use capital letters unless you are referring to the actor and rapper Ice Tea.

So there’s that.
