I'll try not to judge you when you use poor grammar.


I am HORRIBLE at a lot of things. For the most part, I'm not an athlete. I will never win a beauty pageant, I have no idea what constitutes a "cute" shoe, and I'm REALLY bad with numbers. However, I can spot a grammatical error a mile away! I will champion proper language skills until the day I die.

With that being said, THIS is NOT correct:

This was at a bookstore. So...ALL those books belong to one kid?

Wow. Alrighty then Grammar Nazi. I'll try not too make two many mistakes anymore in my blog posts for you anymore. K?

Besides, when you here or read bad grammar, figure it could be way worser. At least their not as bad as Ms. Teen South Carolinas map answering skills. ;)

OMG, i'm totally the same way when it comes to spelling and grammar! LOL. it's kinda like the "your" and "you're" that people always seem to mess up all the time... you know, "YOUR GOING TO THE MALL?" or something... lol. ugh!

The ones that drive me crazy are "your and you're, "there and their" and using the word "of" instead of "have". For example "I should of done this" insead of "I should HAVE done this".

Hey Annalynn, as long as YOU'RE a grammar nazi too, "I'm" should always be capitalized. "It's" should too if it's at the beginning of a sentence.

Hehe. ;)

Oh yeah...and ugh.
