There's someone on a board that I belong to that has this "cutesy" habit of typing "shite" or, lately "sh*te" when she means "shit". Now I see she's added "hail" instead of "hell".
Can I just say here how fucking ANNOYING that is? She's not a precious person in other respects. Although she may also be one of those who types "hayed" when she means "head".
She may also be one of those who types "layed" when she means "laid"--but I can't remember and I think some of the people who type that don't actually know the difference or can't spell worth a damn anyway. But it's hard to tell and you can't go around correcting people all the time, particularly not when they might end up being one of those people who's actually proud of not being able to spell correctly.
Grrr.
