Make like the R100 and lighten up.
Spelling, and its cousin word choice (hanger/hangar, lose/loose, etc.) is underappreciated among many internetters.

If I'm writing for an audience of hundreds or thousands online I try to be pretty careful about such "trivia". I believe it affects how I am perceived.

(OTOH - a great pun is its own reword!)
