      Your comment to correct it and your comment to point out that the error is baiting corrections give this post the exact same amount of engagement, on a site where engagement means nothing because posting doesn’t get you ad revenue.

      Or someone just made a mistake. If anything, that’s a grammar error, not a typo. And you’re the only one who bit, no one else mentioned it once.

        Someone had to mention it, otherwise people will keep doing this. I’ve seen so many typos in memes recently that it’s definitely beyond the “mistake” realm.

          Have you considered that these people might just be non-native and are struggling with a second language? I really don’t see how it’s that big of a deal.

            I’m no native speaker of English either. It’s just a matter of effort, or a matter of not being a troll. Either way they can do better.
