Look, this is for all of the jackasses who have their heads firmly in place within their butts. If you are going to be making idiotic statements on the Internet claiming that another person is an idiot, with your very own conjured up anecdotal evidence, take flippin' moment to spellcheck. This word, "definately" is definitely NOT a word. It is only a bright shining example of how funkin' stupid you are. I've seen product review at e-tailers that repeatedly use this non-word, do you really think I'm going to trust the opinion of a complete mental midget on whether or not to purchase a product? Hell no, I'm not.

It isn't just definitely that is being slaughtered on a regular basis, but I'm beginning to think that definately is the more common spelling. Look the Internet is a great thing, information can be shared with billions in mere moments. But, when the loudest voices on the 'net are clearly the least competent to share information, the Internet loses all credibility, and we all just go back to surfing for pornography.

I blame text messaging and Internet chat speak for the decline of actual English usage. People just don't give a crap anymore whether or not they can be understood. Imbeciles have formed a l33t world where they don't care if their words carry any meaning, so long as they get to use their esoteric language. Let's face facts, it works, if I am forced to decypher some moron's code or poor spelling to gain insight or meaning, I'm going to stop reading. For my pathetic little rants about nothing, I may use an informal tone and attrocious grammar, but I at least make an attempt to make my statements understandable. I also try to spell things within shooting distance of the correct spelling.

In the end it just boils down to one thing, I hate the frackin' word definately, because it isn't even a word, and people use it as though it is the end all be all of argument winners. It doesn't settle online disputes, just because there are no responses to your idiotic statements, it doesn't mean you won, it is more likely that your competition has discovered you aren't worth arguing with if you can't spell properly.
