"Bear" vs "bare". "Bar" vs "bar". "Arm" vs "arm".

Even there, their & they’re aren’t to bad.
Once you get to effect & affect, I start to get confused. Well, you know what I was trying to type.

This argument will be hard to diffuse.....
One of the folks I work for refers to things that are adjusted related to past occurrences as "corrected in the rears". This is difficult.

While in a "chat" with a woman for support on credit union's website, she apologized for the delay and asked me to "bare with her."
I told her that my wife would not approve.
