Grammar Nazis

[Que]

If you're going to register your assessment of the grammatical acumen of others, it is helpful to make sure your understanding of you're and your is the correct before you're embarrassed by calling out a post that was actually correct and your "correction" that you're attempting to gloat about wasn't.

Perhaps when you're confident about your usage of those you can move on to there, they're, and their. There are 33% more gotcha opportunities in their grammar when they're using those!

Example:

Unbelievable. You are not only stupid, you're incessant. And incapable of quoting me accurately, it appears.

Quick! Edit time!

I like to read prose constructed with proper grammar. Mistakes are jarring, but not nearly so much as nitpicking.

It just seams to me that if you set and poured over an other's poast with such apparent acceptional care and all that it managed to illicit in you was a principle desire break out the red pen to correct they're work perhaps reading and responding to it was not the best use of you're intellectual capitol.

But when you're reich, you're reich.

That is not funny. Anne Frankly, I am a bit offended.

Who cares? Half of us are on phones or tablets which auto correct anyway, so flubbed contractions are common.

I hate that. I have been through five identical DroidX phones. As each one "learns" my speech, each had its own brand of idiocy. I had one that kept correcting "you're" and "your" to "ur."

Grammar nazis are better than nazi nazis though.

 

[PoppingTom]

The German word for "grammar nazi" is "Rechtschreibnazi".

If you're going to broadcast your opinion on the grammar of others, it is helpful to make sure your understanding of "You're and "your" is the correct before you're embarrassed by calling out a post that was actually correct and your "correction" that you're attempting to gloat about wasn't.

Perhaps when you're confident about your usage of those you can move on to "There," "They're," and "Their." There are 33% more gotcha opportunities in their grammar when they're using those!

In that case.
Why are you using capitals in the middle of your sentence?

Suggested words suck as well.

Yesterday I was writing an email on my phone and wrote "I just" and the next word it suggested was masturbated. I shit you not. So glad I wasn't in a hurry (or drunk) because that would have been incredibly embarrassing.

One thing my old phone would do is autocorrect the word "coke" to "come". On numerous occasions that made an ass of me, the first of which was asking my wife to bring me home "a bottle of come from the store".

Jew should be ashamed of yourselves.

Sieg, Heil!

A better question is why did I not capitalize "your" in the same manner for consistency's sake. Also, why did I use "quotes" when italics would be a better choice.

That is hilarious. Androids only work <in that fashion*> when Google is working. It has to go to their servers and back. I always picture a little hack they wrote where it routes every 100,000th request past their break room where they all try to top each other with the worst auto-correct.

Do you have an Oxford comma in the States, and do you use it?

"I just snorted lots of come up my nose. The rush is everything."

But mine was a typo.
