Why you shouldn't be a grammar snob

Other than the (intentional?) misspelling, I completely agree.

:wink:

Perhaps people getting all bent out of shape about it speaks to some internal “control issues”…

Not necessarily; we all know what happens if the Luck Dragon gets too annoyed.

Message intentional. Couple typos not. Grammar issues … Tried to cram as many as I could in.

Let’s all behave folks. Life’s too short. Peace to all my happy mutant buddies out there.

Did you really just go full blown MRA in a grammar thread?
Fuck that.

By all means: tell me another difference between what she’s doing and what i’m doing.

We are both being pejorative assholes. Somehow me doing it is not OK while a mainstream journo doing it is OK.

i’ll just leave this right here: https://xkcd.com/1735/

You know who really bother me? Math snobs! I can’t believe those people insist that we say that 2 + 2 = 4. I mean, if I say 2 + 2 = 5, no one dies. So what if I get a different answer for 2 + 3 - 4 x 6 - 8 + 10 x 3 than the math professor in front of me? Will the world come to an end? Education is just a way for incredibly needy, rude people to think they’re better than anyone else. It’s disgusting.

I would love to be a fly on the wall if you use that kind of logic when you explain to the nice IRS man why your tax return is such a mess.

I have no clue what language that is. Looks vaguely Germanic, but may be artificial?
