I noticed a the the yesterday, actually. The the's are such harmless mistakes though. I hate when I get words mismatched. Advice v. advise; scaring v. scarring. I really love those little spelling differences, which I guess is why I hate screwing them up.

The the is quite common. I see it often.
Look what I did here one day:
I just acted like I did that on purpose...
It took me a couple seconds to notice that. With your sense of humor/mysterious meanings I think you can easily get away with those sort of errors.
Yeah, that's true. If you look that up, you'll notice it means something like: to sneak away and get high. I just left it because I thought it was hilarious. The post was about some lame attempt at getting support and attention to my work though. One my early miserable failures.
That should be added to urban dictionary, ideally with a link. You have a lot of phrases that would enlighten the general internet population.
No failures, just creative process that had to leave the brain and end up somewhere. That's how I see it anyway.
I think my favorite is when someone is trying to write "a part of" and instead write "apart of" because it can give the sentence the entire opposite meaning.
Ooo, yeah that's a good one.
I have difficulty with "passed" and "past" occasionally. In the middle of my writing thought I just can't wrap my head around them.
