The only thing that irks me more than seeing midnite spelled the way it is spelled on the sign in the picture is that it is spelled this way on a sign in a library parking lot. I feel strongly that the library should have the sign corrected, effective immediately.
We live in a world where so many things save us time. Instead of hunting and gathering, we can microwave pre-made meals, if we so choose. We can go to a big box store and get clothes, food, other miscellaneous supplies, and electronics all in one trip. We can send instant messages instead of writing a letter and sending it by post. With all this time saved, please just write words out the way they should be spelled. Luv should be love. Guac should be guacamole. Never send me a text that only includes the letter K. If it you feel compelled to confirm something, at least have the decency to write okay. Is it really worth spelling midnight as midnite to save one measly letter? I think not.
