Does Grammar Matter?

[WARNINGWARNING]

I don't speak native.

I'm a grammar snob, I admit it.*

In the internet-world where our only mode of communication is the written word, I think grammar says as much about us as anything. Trying to communicate with someone who uses bad grammar is like trying to hold a conversation with someone who has foul breath and body odor; it's not impossible, it's just unpleasant. I'm less likely to be distracted by a clean body and mouth than a dirty one, therefore, I can concentrate on the points being made instead of the stench.

"Clean mind, clean body, take your pick!"

Clean body. A dirty mind is a terrible thing to waste.

I suspect Hannibal would not approve of incorrect grammar.
