I would like to start a movement to change the spelling of "the" to "teh"
That is how I end up typing it most of teh time anyway, so instead of me being incorrect, I say we embrace the faus pass just as "pwned" is now in teh lexicon.
Even if we cant get Merriam-Webster or Oxford to change teh spelling, I say that we change teh spelling of it online.

Who's with me? Who wants to join Teh Movement?

2. But then the fast typers would mispell it "the."
And "the" will never be as funny as "teh"...will it?
