Do I need a lesson in grammar?

Definitely not an alpha, gave in too easy.

Your from Indiana, talk as you wish.

I know, it's a mute point.

And now we see how the word "nazi" got so diluted. Unless you are killing millions of people because of their grammar, you are not a "grammar nazi".

Being "tough" on a topic like grammar, or even soup, does not make one a "nazi". Calling for mass genocide? Yeah, now you are getting there.

Don't know if it is an American phenomenon, or a sign of the times more generally, but it seems that EVERYTHING must have a special term, and that term must be as short as possible.

This must be the "grammer-gate" thread.

Yes, per say it is mute.

Or, have we passed the statue of limitations?

Ha I think people are done biting on mute and your and so forth. Good run though.

How the heck did I miss a grammar thread?!



Check out Paul Brians' list. It's good to check out a few things.

Also, I despise "Grammar Nazi", and prefer to be called a "Grammar Martinet". (look it up)

I'm a "grammar enthusiast". "Conceal" is noticeable, but really only in a pretty small demographic. There are much more common errors. My favorite peeve is the misuse of apostrophes.

I have decided to add “what not” at the end of every phrase when I am speaking.
