The only thing that drives me irrationally bonkers is the increasing use of "loosing" instead of "losing", even here on HN (https://www.hnsearch.com/search#request/all&q=loosing). Mostly because I cannot comprehend how anyone can not know how to spell "losing". However, this isn't slang.

You cannot comprehend? Goose. Rose. I can see how writing "loose" instead of "lose" happens, especially for non-native speakers.

Even if you are a native speaker, typos happen.
