Allow me to be a grammer nazi for a while
 
Ok now it doesnt happen much here but with my new office, I havent seen this much bad grammer in such a long time, SO! here are the big ones, feel free to add to the list:

Broke-Its broke. No its not its broken, you BROKE it.

Eye-talian- um no. You dont go to Eye-taly do you?

Seen-you didnt seen crap! you saw it. It can be seen, or it was seen, but you didnt seen anything

going along with that--nothing-as in I didnt seen nothing, first off you didnt seen ANYTHING and second off you did SEE anything. GRR

also abbrevations: useless ones. like Debit Card to DC. really? are you that lazy? l8tr--is this even a word? learn to type. I actually got a resume the yesterday, that had a cover letter on it. First line: 2 whom it may concern. wow...

alright so what bugs you?

People who don't realize it's grammar - not grammer. :hn

Just having a little fun, my grammar and spelling suck. :D

Re: Allow me to be a grammer nazi for a while
 
Yes! I can't think of the times I have seen people complain about grammar, only spell words wrong, leave out punctuation, etc. Believe me it annoys me sometimes as well, but I would never start a thread about, at least without triple checking all of my "grammer" and spelling. :r

I can be a bit of a spelling Nazi, the new texting abbreviations drive me nut sometimes. There's a fishing bulletin board on which I participate, and the abuse of the English language there would make my 7th grade English teacher cry.

Lol at the entire thread. I really mean; this entire thread is so funny that I find myself laughing out loud due to all of the grammatical discrepancies contained throughout the thread, which undermine the original poster's intention(s). :fu

Adam, for being English, and your uh.... colorful... way of speaking, we should make Brad chat with you for an hour, by the end of the hour, you will either notice silence, or screams. Heck, I would buy a ticket for that, but can't afford it since I bought a new/used watch recently.

I've always loved reading things like this. It is amazing what the mind can process. I'm a bit a grammar Nazi myself. I drive my wife crazy because I'm forever correcting the spelling and grammar of her emails and text messages. I hate seeing l8tr, u, or any other "text" words. Typing Y-O-U isn't that much more work that just U.
