I don't do that because I'm a terrible speller so I don't judge.

It only bothers me when it's blatantly wrong. We all mess up grammar sometimes but when it's a mistake that should be common sense, then I get annoyed.

I just laugh at grammar nazis because they're just bored people with no lives. Their life goal feeling the need to correct someone all the time is kinda redundant. Good for them getting that brownie points of self-accomplishment


I disagree wholeheartedly.


This may be apples to oranges (grammar vs. punctuation), but I heard about this story earlier today and it made me sad. A 96 year old man ended his 18 year old fight to save the 'apostrophe' from abuse and misuse. He had an honorable goal, but the ignorance of people won out...

I would never pay attention to someone who says they correct others grammar regarding their grammar.   Who says you are using proper grammar.   Pettiness abounds..

It bothers me but not to the point of correcting someone to hurt someone's feelings over. Thank goodness for auto correct sometimes.

I loved English, and unfortunately, my brain just automatically does it.
