Are you a Grammar Nazi?

[quote=shana16;#347702;1376312026]ke the dafak mehn that is so dumb of you.[/quote] :lol3::lol3::lol3: HAHAHAHAHA. [b]YOUR[/b] so funny. How's the urge Shana? :xixi: [quote=shana16;#347702;1376312026]sometimes i dont care about it because people are too dumb to notice those typo's :lol2:[/quote] Shouldn't that be 'typos' without the apostrophe? :lol: [quote=Pawws;#347668;1376304591]A person who uses proper grammar at all times, esp. online in emails, chatrooms, instant messages and webboard posts; a proponent of grammatical correctness.[/quote] [b]PC[/b] = Yes. Definitely. [b]Touchscreen phones[/b] = Fuck it. :| Do you know how long before I can construct a decent sentence on a phone with a small screen?! :lol3: I'm like FFFFUUUUUUUU every time I press the wrong key which is every 3 seconds or so. :no2: [b]Web board posts[/b] = I do. But I like using shortcuts for these words: though = tho, already = adi, Probably = prolly and many more. [b]Instant messages[/b] = Only if I'm typing in English. I'm not strict with my punctuation marks and capitalization although I'm almost always careful with my spelling. [quote]b – One who attempts to persuade or [b]force others[/b] to use proper grammar and spelling.[/quote] Nope... Maybe only when s/he's talking to me and I have problems understanding. [quote]c – One who uses proper grammar and spelling to subtly mock or deride those who do not[/quote] When I hate someone, I don't do it [i]subtly[/i]. I really rub it to their faces. :evil: If it's a friend, I would repeat his/her sentence using the correct form so s/he can see his/her mistake. [b]For example:[/b] Him: Did you called the police? Me: Did I call the police? Yea, I did. [quote]d – One who advocates linguistic clarity; an opponent of 1337-speak. e – One who corrects others' grammar; the spelling police.[/quote] There was a time I used to type 1337 (a bit) so I rly don't mind. Most of the time, I just avoid people who are hard to understand on the internet. [quote=Pawws;#347668;1376304591]1. Do you often get the annoyed when people mistakes your from you're, this from these or were from where?[/quote] I don't get annoyed at the blunderer (except if I adi hate him/her then that's gunna be a multiplier :lol3:) but it's definitely an eyesore. I also commit the same mistakes tho when I'm sleepy, not focused, half awake etc. etc. [quote=Pawws;#347668;1376304591]As a grammatical nazi, after re-reading your own post and feels there's something wrong or missing about it, do you feel the urge or need to correct them right away?[/quote] Yup. That's why Twitter should have an edit button. I'm always thinking whether I should delete my tweet if I make a mistake or just let it be and hope no one cares. :lol3: [quote=Pawws;#347668;1376304591]Also when you see a person making grammatical mistakes, do you always have the guts to tell it to them straight no matter what?[/quote] No. Especially if we're not close. But there was this girl I corrected in Facebook. Idk, it was just too annoying to ignore. The word was spreaded. She wrote it on her status, I forgot what the whole quote was but she was trying tell her haters to fuck off or sth. :lol3: [quote]Well then, after reading the definition... do you now consider yourself one? If so, what is your Grammar Nazi level? :lol2:[/quote] I'm not perfect. I also make a lot of grammatical errors. I could be double checking my post and still find lapses the next time I re-read it. Admit it or not, English isn't our native language so people shouldn't rly expect every flip to be perfect. Hell, even native speakers commit mistakes. I'm at least a [b]5[/b]. Keeping in mind that English is just a language.
