Me can't anymore...
Me just can't...

Do you understand how difficult it is for me, after typing out a long post, to go back and correct every time me typed "i" instead of the word "I"? For example, correcting "i went to the store" corrected to "I went to the store".

And sometimes me have to make this correction 5 or 6 times! Do you have any idea how much of my day that eats up?

How do people deal with this problem? How do you get through this? Therapy?

Maybe that's the answer...therapy.

Me just can't bear this burden anymore.

No person should be subject to this kind of stress.

Now the stress has been transferred to the people who can't stand bad grammar!
