I spent all of high school arguing with my English teachers about whether or not it is spelled ‘a lot’ or ‘alot’. I spelled out ‘alot’ so often in my assignments and argued about it that at one point, even the teachers began to question whether or not it was spelled that way. It was easier to confuse these things pre-internet and pre-google … plus I had a lot of gullible (but nice) teachers.
